Fuel Filter

I have a 2001 SE with 34,XXX miles...is a good time to swap out spark plugs and fuel filter???? I read on the manual and it says the fuel filter is maintless free??? What does maintless free mean??? Do I never replace the fuel Filter????

On my max, I think I either got new plugs or they were just cleaned, but when I drove it after, the car had so much more power. Tapped the gas and the tires broke loose no problem.

And about the fuel filter, I don't see the harm in replacing it. I know a sales man that has a 2k max and has like 30k miles and changes his oil filter every 2 oil changes.

I think the filter is in the gas tank and isn't an easy thing to change.
