Just changed the original 1996 fuel filter (!)

I recently bought a 96 ti Active with Calif. Roof and am changing out all the fluids, plugs, suspension parts etc. I changed the fuel filter tonight and could not believe the original filter had made it this far. (11 years & 94K miles) Definitely over-engineered I guess. I was pouring the gas out of the outlet side (to engine) and it was weakly trickling out. (definitely indicating a growing prostate problem)
