Attached are some pictures of the disassembled fuel filter after 265 hours.
Although I rinsed the tanks about four times (to remove bits of pro seal)
before fueling initially, invisible particles of something (looks and feels
like lint) must have been left in the system. There was no impedance to fuel
flow but small particles were removed. Based on our findings the need to
clean the fuel filter (about 1.5 hours to remove, clean, install and test)
should be every 500 hours.

I cleaned mine my first two annuals. The first one was very dirty (90
hours), the second one pretty clean. From what I have seen, 500 sounds like
a good number. But, since I don't fly that much, I don't think I will ever
see that many hours between annuals and plan to clean it every annual.

It is my understanding that the lint is from the filters in the fuel truck.

I clean mine every ACI, and so far it has been clean as a whistle (3
ACI's done to date).
