Bo,

Much will depend on how much you use your engine, how clean your tank is, and 
the quality of fuel you are using. 

When the Enterprise came down from New York, she was practically motoring the 
entire time, adding many hours of engine use in three weeks. For that trip, the 
filters were changed two times. 

For normal use, like Josh, I have a fine raycor filter and change that maybe 
once every several years - or if I can see notable clogging or the engine 
stalls. The filter on the engine Itself I change once every three years or so. 

I used to do oil changes and oil filter changes every fall before laying up for 
the winter. Since there is no real layup season down here in Florida, I still 
keep to my fall schedule. 

My engine (Beta 30) came with a maintenance schedule based on engine hours. If 
you have that for your engine, that should be an excellent guide. 

All the best, 

Edd

Hi everyone, 

Just wondering, how often do you have to change diesel filters? or how do you 
tell it is time to change?

Thank you,

Bo
