I tend to change the oil filter every time I change the oil, ie roughly every 5000kms. Do I need to? Do you guys?

if you get good fuel no probs , they are cheap to buy , dirty filter will restrict flow and lead to injector pintles getting fouled

Simple rule when buying fuel never get it straight after a tanker has been there. What happens is it stirs up the water thats in the storage tanks that they use as ballast .
