How to replace the fuel fitler?

[Marv17]

Does anyone know where exactly our fuel filter is located? I'm thinking of replacing it this week or next. I'm sure it hasnt been changed in a long long time and its just $20. It might help with gas mileage...

EDIT AGAIN:

here is what i wrote up the day i did it...

um its VERY SIMPLE

heres a quick write up.

pull your fuel pump fuse, then start car and let it run til it dies.
jack up driver side of car. put it on stands.

now there are 4 8mm screws holding a metal plate onto the floor pan right under the driver side of the car.

after that is off then you will see a long cylinder like thing with two gas lines attached. crimp the rear hose and then put a pan under the front hose. unscrew the hose clamp and let the fuel drain out of the line and then take off the rear hose clamp and remove the fuel filter and install new one.

now install in reverse order and once all done put in the fuse and start her up. it will take a second to get the fuel back in the system.

hope that helps.

The arrow on the fuel filter will show the flow of the gas, that arrow should be pointing towards the engine. Make sure you don't put it in backwards.

On the 1995 the cover over the fuel filter is plastic, not metal. But the process is the same.

Josh's post is what I was hoping to find, nice and easy. Not sure if it's the same on my swapped TI, but I'll find out. Old thread revival I know
