The in-line fuel filter is located at the frame above the rear part of the
Fuel Tank at the feeder neck and is fastened on the rear side of the fuel tank above the rear suspension transverse member. At this start off, unscrew the fuel tank filler cap to depressurize and then proceed with a fuel pressure relief process. Loosen the negative battery cable from the ground stud on the left shock tower. On the inside of the trunk shine a light, fold back the trunk mat over to where the left shock tower, remove the fuel pump wiring harness 4-pin connector. Hook a piece of string on the fuel pump wiring harness so that this will be easy to pull out later, then install the grommet on the floorpan and pass the wiring and connector through the hole. Lift the vehicle and install it on jackstands safely; place an approved gasoline container beneath the fuel tank drain vent, if there is one; use a funnel if required to avoid leakage. After draining the fuel screw back and tighten the drain plug. Chock the wheels of the fuel tank and raise the fuel tank using a floor jack while placing a piece of wood between the jack head and fuel tank. Take off the driver side fuel tank strap and unbolt the passenger side strap to position the filler neck slightly over the rear suspension crossmember to afford jack weight of the tank. Remove the quick-connect fuel line fittings linking the fuel filter to the fuel system and unscrew the fuel filter and take it out of its installation. In this case, the removal is reversed, the fuel line quick-connect fittings are assembled tightly, the fuel tank strap bolts are tightened and, at last, the system must be pressurized in order to check if there are any leaks.
