    Safety is paramount. If the vehicle has been operated recently, say within the last day or two, the fuel system will likely still be under pressure. Even after several days off, the system may still be pressurized, and opening the system will release a gasoline spray. Wear eye protection and put a pan underneath to catch spills.

    The filter is located under the rear of the car, behind the fuel tank.

    One end of the filter requires two wrenches (normal best fit: 5/8" and 13/16") and the other end is a pinch type latch. You may need to transfer this plastic latch to the new filter.

    Don't throw out the old filter until the new filter is installed and checked for leaks. If the clamp/bracket is still there, it should be slid off the old filter and installed onto the new one to hold the fuel line up off the ground.
