This is the most honest review you'll read about this product and how I feel about the fuel filter after 2 weeks. 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Special Edition 4.0 I bought this Ecogard XF65627 Filter filter May 4th, 2020 for $20 shipped on Amazon because it was cheap. The OEM Mopar/Chrysler ones are around $80-$90. I'm a DIY'er on my Jeep so I knew this would be cake (even though the fittings for this filter are a NIGHTMARE to get off). I have had this Ecoguard filter on my Jeep for about 2 weeks. My previous filter was the original filter with 180k on it. I decided that even thoygh nothing was wrong with my Jeep, I was going to replace the filter as preventative maintenance. So I did with this one. With the OEM filter @ 180k, my engine still cranked over (paired with a new starter 2 months ago) right away. Half a second. With this Ecogard filter, I was having multiple 2-3 second cranks before the Jeep would finally fire up. A bit worrisome. Sometimes it would fire up right away. The inconsistency was driving me nuts and it's downright embarrassing if you have someone in the car with you, etc. I figured it was the fuel pressure regulator in this unit and I was not wrong. It's cheap for a reason. I don't want to have to crank my Jeep 3-4 times for a few seconds to get it to fire up. Especially if I'm far from home. This product has it's own Manufacturing # of XF65627 to replace the 52100283AG OEM filter; so while it's a replacement, it does have it's own manufacturing # as a 'replacement' In short, do yourself a favor. After 2 weeks I went to Ebay and bought a Crown Auto 52100283AG replacement. The 52100283AG manufacturing # is the exact OEM replacement for an 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 4.0 and not the newer version 68193495AA or this Ecogard XF65627. The Crown Auto one on Ebay (can also buy on Amazon, or SummitRacing.com [which you know if Summit is selling it, they trust it]) is only $35 shipped. A mere $10-15 difference for an OEM spec product. I have used Crown Auto products in the past (front upper control arm bushings and a tailpipe hanger) and knew the name so that's why I went with it over shelling out $90 for a Mopar OEM one. My Jeep now cranks over right away like it did with the original filter. Every time; cold or hot weather TL,DR; Jeep cranks over immediately with the Crown Auto 52100283AG vs the Ecogard XF65627 for a negligible price difference. Thank yourself later. Decent filter if you're broke like most DIY's (including myself), but not worth the day-after-day headache of wondering how many cranks you need to fire up the Jeep and who's watching your car take a crap on you Innovative Performance Chip/Power Programmer compatible with Jeep Cherokee & Grand Cherokee 2.0L, 2.4L, 2.5L, 3.0L, 3.2L, 3.6L, 3.7L, 4.0L, 4.7L, 5.2L, 5.7L, 5.9L, 6.1L and 6.4L - Gain MPG & HP!3.5 out of 5 stars108 $89.95 Ships to Singapore

Both filters are designed for extended service. They do not require normal scheduled maintenance.
How do I know if my fuel pump is bad on my Jeep Grand Cherokee?Signs of such failure are a car that won't start or stalls once it has started. Other times, the fuel flow can slowly become starved causing the check engine light to come on. Or if you hear a whirring sound coming from your fuel tank, the fuel pump may be about to fail, since fuel pumps do not normally make noise.
