Hello, thank you for writing in. The fuel filter is located on the driver’s (left) side of the vehicle. It will be inline, so finding a fuel line and tracing it should help you locate the cylindrical filter. It will be about midway down the vehicle between the engine and the fuel tank. Make sure to depressurize the filter before disconnecting the fuel lines. You can do this by pulling the fuel pump relay and starting the car until it empties the gas in the lines. You can then remove the bracket and disconnect the filter. For more help with the repair, contact our service department about scheduling.
