How much does it cost to replace a fuel filter?

Probably $50 at a shop, but you can do it for about $10 on most cars.



How to do it?



First, get the new filter and locate the old filter. Many domestic cars are easy, newer GM's and Ford's have nylon clips that simply hold the fuel lines on the filter.



To do this job, you need the appropriate screwdrivers or wrenches, the fuel filter, your owners manual and a pan to catch the fuel that will spill.



Locate the fuel pump fuse in your owners manual and remove that fuse. Start the car. It will probably run for a second or two and stop.



Place the pan under there the filter is located. Loosen the lines from the filter. If it's one of the domestics I mentioned, you can carefully pry the nylon clips off with a screwdriver.



Let the fuel lines drain into the pan.



Loose the clamp that holds the filter to the body of the car.



Notice the orientation of the filter. It should have an arrow on it, indicating the direction of fluid flow.



Install the new filter in the same direction, reversing the steps above.



When you go to start the car, it may take a longer crank since you just drained all the fuel out of the fuel lines.

You will find it on the front left hand side of the cylinder head. There were two different types, easily identified by its colour, the most common one had a white plastic top. The sensor gets corroded and then give a false reading to the ecu, this can then cause problems with the fuelling. Try removing the sensor and cleaning off any corrosion, if this improves things then you know you are definitely on the right track. as far as i can remember the part number for the sensor is 7700737571 and it was about 20+ vatWhere is fuel filter on Renault Laguna RT 1995 2l petrol, what does it look like %26amp; how do you clean it?You need a gallon of 87 octane and a match to solve your problems.Where is fuel filter on Renault Laguna RT 1995 2l petrol, what does it look like %26amp; how do you clean it?nice one GAWKEN!

    How do I changed my fuel filter...?

    I own a 2004 Hyundai Accent. I need to know in details where the fuel filter is located, the tools I need, and how to change it.How do I changed my fuel filter...?For that car, it is likely in the fuel tank...they intend them to last the %26quot;life of the car%26quot;, but many times don't. If it is plugged, I would suggest having a pro do the job...How do I changed my fuel filter...?Fuel filter? Do you mean OIL filter? your fuel filter shouldn't go bad on a 2004 model. Still under warranty?How do I changed my fuel filter...?Nope. Don't touch it unless you are a mechanic or engineer. You're going to end up killing yourself. I don't care if you're short on money. This is not something you touch if you're not mechanically inclined.How do I changed my fuel filter...?I cannot verify currently the location of your fuel filter. It will be in 1 of 3 places. If it is in the engine bay It will look like a small can with a line going in top under a bolt and a line coming from the bottom going to the Fuel rail. If it is under the car it will be a small can with a hose hose clamped to each end. and if its in the tank its rather hard to change but I will tell you just to answer your question. I suggest having a mechanic friend or pro handle it if its there. To take it out of the tank, You will most likely need to depressurize the system by removing the efi relay under hood and run the engine until it dies on its own. then try to start it a few times. then disconnect the battery. in the trunk under the carpet and maybe spare tire there will be a small panel held in place by some bolts/screws. undo them and underneath is your fuel tank, there will be a circle with connectors coming out the top. you will have to unbolt it and lift out the fuel pump assembly. In the assembly will be the filter, the pump, and most likely the fuel level sender with float. Sometimes you have to replace it as a unit I am not sure on your car. If you don't you can replace the filter if you do You will have to buy a new unit at a store and swap the fuel lines onto it and electrical connections etc. For tools you will need sockets ( My guess would be metric around a 17 but not sure ) a flathead if you need to take off the hose clamps, and 10s or 12mm socket for the panel and tank cover in trunk. If you have to take off the lines to the fuel pump you will need a fuel line clamp and A lot of luck. I personally wouldn't mess with it unless you HAVE to. Any questions Ill be around. Oh and if they are in the engine or under the car depressurize the system and simply unbolt/unclamp them, and replace the way they came out. Make sure flow is correct way. -mike.





    P.S. After searching it looks like the fuel filter Might be the under the chasis kind. Look something like this :http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sku/Hyundai/Accent/Hastings/Fuel_Filter/2004/HAGF346.html?tlc=Engine+%26+Drivetrain , do depressureize the system and find it.

    How much should it cost to have a mechanic change the inline fuel filter of a 1993 toyota paseo?

    An hour's rate.. maybe $40 at my shop.



    The high pressure EFI filters aren't a simple rubber hose off.. rubber hose on type carb. filter. The filter is threaded on, larger, and usually in a tight spot.How much should it cost to have a mechanic change the inline fuel filter of a 1993 toyota paseo?since it would be a 10-minute job for any good mechanic (half-hour for the common man with a scissor jack) 20 dollars. they will probably hit you for more than that and say you need a fuel pump, new pressure regulator and some lines replaced so they can get a few hundred out of you though.

    How to troubleshoot a 1998 323ic BMW fuel filter?

    Please help, I'm in desperate need to get mine back on the road.How to troubleshoot a 1998 323ic BMW fuel filter?I would just replace it if the car was mine (due to the age and mileage of the car).

    But if you insist, while you can check directly at the output side of the filter itself, I would recommend checking for fuel pressure after the filter at the schrader valve of the common fuel rail which supplies fuel to the injectors. Checking for pressure before the filter checks the integrity of the fuel pump.

    If you have already replaced the filter and the pump is normally supplying fuel yet the fuel pressure is low then you may have a bad fuel pressure regulator.

    Question about how to release the fuel system pressure before changing the fuel filter in a vehicle?

    i've been doing this for a long time ,you tell me if this is a good idea or not : when reading the instructions they always suggest to release the fuel system pressure before changing your fuel filter this is what i do: i open the gas tank cap and then introduce half way a medium size screw driver to keep the gas tank neck open,is this a good thing to do to keep the fuel system unpressurized or maybe this doesn't make any sense to you,your opinion please,tanks in advanceQuestion about how to release the fuel system pressure before changing the fuel filter in a vehicle?that does not release the fuel pressure. the best way is to remove the fuel pump fuse or relay and then crank the engine over for a few seconds. that will release any pressure so the fuel doesnt spray you in the face when you pop off the fuel line.Question about how to release the fuel system pressure before changing the fuel filter in a vehicle?if it is fuel injected, on the fuel rail near the motor where it splits or near the first injector is a valve.that is where you release the pressure.they recommend the fuel pressure tester to release pressure..but you can use a screw driver and a rag to release it.you wrap the line with the rag and put the screw driver in the valve with the rag covering it so gas does not spray all over. remember the pressure is 14 to 22 lbs so gas is going to shoot outQuestion about how to release the fuel system pressure before changing the fuel filter in a vehicle?If you have a schrader valve type fitting on the fuel rail that's used for attaching a fuel pressure gauge, then press the center pin in to release some pressure with a rag to catch the fuel. If not, then I'd just gradually remove the filter connectors. Wear safety glasses and rubber gloves.Question about how to release the fuel system pressure before changing the fuel filter in a vehicle?What you're doing will not relieve pressure in the fuel line. But unless you're in a diesel, the fuel pressure is nothing to worry about. You can relieve pressure by pulling the fuel pump fuse and running the engine 'till it quits, or you can just put a rag over the fitting so it won't squirt in your eyes, and you'll just get a few tablespoons of gas on your hand.Question about how to release the fuel system pressure before changing the fuel filter in a vehicle?Steven's suggestion is right on.



    Also, the fuel pressure at the rail is at least 40 PSI. Not something I would care to catch with a rag as yor skin absorbs gasline very easily. YUM!



    The pressure that is to be released is between the pump and injectors, so leaving the fuel cap off only makes you feel better after clicking your heels a few times and ending up in Kansas.

    How to change fuel filter on 2000 Nissan Quest?

    I need to know how to do it, where it is, the difficulty level, and any probs I might encounter. Something I read said I'd have to pressurize/ depressurize the system. Is that crazy or do I need to, and if so, how do I do that? Do I need special tools? I can get most tools if I have to.How to change fuel filter on 2000 Nissan Quest?Just make sure you disconnect your battery first. You dont want any surprizes. Its pretty simple. Disconnect the fuel line and stick a rag in it. Undo any clamps and take off the other fuel line. Stick a rag in that too. Put on the new filter plug in the lines attach and tighten the clamps and drive around the block to check it. Dont forget to reattach the batttery or.............you wont go far! No special tools.

    Without any experience you should be able to figure it out in half an hour.How to change fuel filter on 2000 Nissan Quest?Make sure the engine is off.

    Loosen the gas gap to release the pressure.

    The fuel filter is an inline filter that is usually in the engine compartment. Many are plastic but some are metal.

    A hose will be connected on each end of the filter.

    Some use hose clamps that require the use of a screw driver to loosen, others use pressure clamps that use a pair of pliers.



    Once you find the fuel filter, its a 5 minute job to change it out.

    On a 2004 chevy silverado 3500 with duramax diesel engine what is the best way to chagne the fuel filter?

Pull the filter, replace it turn the set screw about a 1/4 of a turn and then prime the heck out of it until it starts to squirt fuel out of the set screw and then tighten the set screw and your done.On a 2004 chevy silverado 3500 with duramax diesel engine what is the best way to chagne the fuel filter?i have never taken the cover off even on the new lmm engine

Holding the boot of each wire, pull each off, then use a spark plug wrench and rachet to take each one out. The fuel filter differs from car to car.How to replace plug spark and fuel filter?Im not trying to bw a smart @$$ here but if you put diesel fuel in the vehicle then PLEASE dont attempt this repair yourself.Take it to a repair shop. your fuel tank needs to be drained too.

How did you get the nozzle into the filler neck past the small hole?...........Life is always STRANGER than fiction.How to replace plug spark and fuel filter?When you grab the GREEN handle at the fuel pump and it smells funny......DO NOT fill your vehicle with it unless it is a Diesel fueled vehicle... the fuel tank must be drained.... if it

Changing the plugs on a 4 cylinder model are a little easier (because of access) whereas conversely a V-6 can be a bit of a pain because the plugs in the back are harder to reach. Nevertheless, all you will need to take out the plugs is a 11/16%26quot; socket or 13/16%26quot; socket and rachet. You will first locate the plugs, pull off the plug wires. Then using your wrench, take the plugs out by turning the wrench counter clockwise. Inspect the bottom of the plug, there may or may not be a washer (spacer) on the bottom of the plug or in the base of the plug hole itself. Whether it was there or not, replace it the same way that it was. Then replace the old plugs with new ones and tighten them down, but not too tight. Replace the plug wires.



    The fuel filters are typically a little harder to replace. You will need to have a catch basin, fuel line disconnect tool (they will have an assorted set at your local auto shop), safety glasses, and a fire extinguisher ( you would not believe how many houses burn down from people trying to do this in their garage, so be outside). You will need to locate the fuel filter by tracing the fuel lines from the tank towards the motor. It would'nt hurt to buy the new one before you try locating the old one, this way you will know what you are looking for. Use the fuel line disconnect tool to remove the fuel line from each end of the filter, then replace with the new one in the same manner. You had better make sure that you get all the old fuel out of the tank.



    Or spend hundreds at your local garage.

    Can break the bond, fitting are starting to strip and i am using the correct sized tools.How do you get the fuel filter off a 90 Lexus LS 400? Relieve Fuel Pressure some way?To relieve the pressure from the fuel system there will be a bleed valve in the engine compartment. It will look like a valve stem from a tire. Make sure when you bleed the system that you have a rag handy and the engine is not still hot as there will be some fuel leakage.

  • How important is fuel filter change?

    there is no way for an ordinary guy to know how durty or clean is the gasoline we pump from the gas station into our gas tank



    we pressume it is a good quality, is it?How important is fuel filter change?AL fuels sold in the USA have to meet minimum requirement so gas stations don't sell bad gas. (Another example of one of those %26quot;ridiculous government regulations.) Most stations get their fuel at the same place. The difference is the additive package that is put into the tank before the tanker gets to the fuel depot. However, there are, and always will be, bits of things in the tanks. It gets there from opening the lid when the fuel is delivered, things coming loose in the holding tanks, water condensation inside the tanks, and whatever gets into your own fuel tank in your vehicle. The job of the filter is to strain this out before it gets to your injectors or carburetor and clog things up. After a while your filter gets full of this stuff and gets clogged up. Your engine gets starved for fuel and your vehicle starts pinging and getting worse gas mileage. Finally your engine won't run and your fuel pump ends up burning out. If you change your fuel filter periodically you end up saving not only gas, but also costly repairs.How important is fuel filter change?I have a GM mechanic friend who tells me to replace the fuel filter every year. He said they're getting so many more injector problems than they used to. I also have the good quality fuel system cleaner done every 30,000 miles. I had an injector replaced once.

    Is it easy to replace the fuel filter on a VW Jetta 2.5?

    I purchased my car back in June with 27k miles on it. Currently it has about 46k miles on it, so needless to say, I do a lot of driving compared to the average driver. I recently read that you should replace your fuel filter every 15k miles. If possible, I would like to do it myself to save money, so I was wondering is this a difficult thing to do and where would I find out how to do it?



    Thank you!Is it easy to replace the fuel filter on a VW Jetta 2.5?It is very easy. The filter is usually on the very left or right side of the car towards the middle of the undercarriage. You can usually see it just by sticking your head under the car and looking but you may have to jack it up a little bit. The filter is usually about the size of soda can depending on your car, but it will have one fuel line coming in the back and one going out the front of it. There is a procedure for most cars to relieve the fuel line pressure but honestly it is a waste of time to me as you always get some fuel spilled on the ground. Just make sure you have waited a few hours for the pressure to relieve itself. I strongly recommend changing it before you drive first thing in the morning. Anyway the filter will have either plastic clips or metal nuts that screw the fuel lines into the filter. Just take the right wrench or a screw driver to pop the clips of the filter. If they are plastic clips don't worry about breaking them as the new filter will have new clips on it. Take the clamp off that holds the filter to the car and replace it with the new filter in the opposite order. After you replace it turn the ignition key on and off(DON'T start the car though) a few times to build the fuel pressure back up in the fuel line, then start it up. That's it! MAKE SURE you where some gloves and some safety glasses so you don't get fuel on your hands or in your EYES! Good luckIs it easy to replace the fuel filter on a VW Jetta 2.5?Easy... Just take it to the dealer!Is it easy to replace the fuel filter on a VW Jetta 2.5?this is a fairly simple process.

    1. Detach the fuel pump relay- in the fusebox under your dash, it's the twelfth relay- the one on the very right in the bottom.



    2. Detach the negative wire of the battery (if you have an original stereo, make sure you have the code because otherwise it will be blocked)



    3. Try to start the car. Crank it several times if you need to until you can't start the engine



    4. Raise the rear of the car and remove the wheel that is closest to the filter (the right one usually)



    5. Detach the bolts that hold the fuel filter (or the plastic harness it may be in)





    6. Note the position of the filter and mark the in and out hoses of the filter.





    7. Loosen the clamps on the hoses and pull the hoses out gently, holding the filter horizontally to prevent the left over fuel from spilling.



    8. Put everything back together, tighten all bolts, put the wheel back, lower the car, connect the relay, the battery and start the car :) It may take a couple of cranks at first.

    or



    http://mysite.verizon.net/t2bedlam/l3.jp



    Those would be the locations the filter would be at.



    You will need a special tool though, Goto a parts store and ask for a fuel filter removal tool. They make plastic ones, but I prefer the one that looks like scissors as it 4 sizes on it. Basically, look at those photos and you will see the a%26quot;bell%26quot; at the end of each line. You need to put this tool around the stem of the filter and wiggle it into the bell, then push forward (up against the filter) as you are pushing the tool into the bell, then pull the line off. Sounds hard but quite easy, slide the tool back with the bell end of the hose.

    Do that for both ends!

    As for putting it back on, be sure no orings slipped out. and just (without the tool) slide the hoses back on until you here them click, pull back just to make sure its sealed.

    When you first release the line, go slowly as pressure will be built up in the line. let that blead off and then pull it off the rest of the way.



    ANother way to relieve the pressure would be to look for the %26quot;shrader%26quot; valve (looks like the valve on your tire you put air into) on your motor, its the fuel rail that runs to your injectors.

    Remove the cap and push in on the vale while keeping your face away. that will relieve the pressure in the gas line.

    Hope this info helps

I then have to re-start the car and hope that no one hits me in the process and it's a real pain in the butt. Anyhow, to try and solve the problem I've gotten a new air filter and an oil change. But it's still stalling on me. I've been told it might be the fuel filter by my friend but I don't know how much truth there is to that. Could it be the fuel filter? And if so how much does it cost to replace?Could a dirty fuel filter be whats causing my car to stall?yes it could be something as simple as a fuel filter causing that too happen,have a computer scan done on it at auto zone to see if you have any trouble codes on it if you dont try changing the filter they cost about 15 bucks and that may solve your problem with it,sometimes its the simplest things that cause the biggest problems,good luck.Could a dirty fuel filter be whats causing my car to stall?your welcome.

Obviously, don't smoke or have other sources of ignition during the process.

    Typically, relieveing the pressure is just a matter of a fuse or a switch, so it's not worth the gasoline spill to save 30 seconds of time.Is it safe to change a fuel filter on a 2005 grand am without relieving the pressure first? How hard is it?I don't have this vehicle, but almost all newer vehicles have special retaining clips or quick connect fittings for the fuel lines. Therefore, you will have to get a Hayes or Chilton manual to figure out which special tool you need to remove the filter (every company seams to have a different set-up). Also, notice I said quick connect fittings, not quick disconnect fittings. They have a nasty ability to rust on the inside and collect dirt, which makes them particularly difficult to remove. Use lots of P%26amp;P (Penetrating oil %26amp; Persistance). The occasional swear word also helps, I find!



    As far as pressure goes, you should always relieve the pressure first, but you will not harm the system if you don't. Just be prepared for a stream of gas to come out and clean up the spill immediately. Gasoline will burn the skin quite badly if it stays in contact with your skin for long.



    To find the fuel filter, just follow the fuel line from the tank to the injectors. The fuel filter will be a cylindrical object in-line with the fuel line. Also be sure to install the new filter in the same orientation. They are normally stamped with an arrow indicating the direcion of fuel travel.

    Whats a fuel filter where do i locate it and how can i clean it?

    do i need to change it, is there a way to clean it, will it help improve my cars acceleration problems?Whats a fuel filter where do i locate it and how can i clean it?good answer mad jackWhats a fuel filter where do i locate it and how can i clean it?The fuel filter is located in the fuel supply line between the engine and the fuel tank. The location can vary by manufacture but it is usually located back near the fuel tank.



    These usually can not be cleaned they are replaced.



    Some of the newer model vehicles require a special tool to release a quick disconnect fitting on the filter to remove them. Others require a common wrench. Again, this varies by manufacturer and year.



    Replacing the filter may or may not solve your acceleration problems. It will only help if your fuel filter is dirty to the point where the engine is starving for fuel under acceleration.



    If you don't know what you are doing, you could have problems replacing this filter. Modern fuel injected engines have high pressure in the fuel lines. This pressure should be released before removing the filter. Also, on some engines, the fuel pump could automatically start when you disconnect the fuel filter. It is best to disconnect the battery or at least remove the fuse to the fuel pump before starting any work. Do the work in a well ventilated area. No smoking in the area. Have an ABC rated fire extinguisher on hand.Whats a fuel filter where do i locate it and how can i clean it?you don't clean it you replace it they are located in many different places depending on the car and are cheep Whats a fuel filter where do i locate it and how can i clean it?Over time the bottom of your fuel tank accumulates a lot of crud. The purpose of the fuel filter is to keep this crud from blocking a fuel line and/or damaging your fuel pump and/or fuel injectors or carburetor.



    It's usually attached underneath the car not far from the fuel tank.



    You do not clean it, you replace it.



    If your current fuel filter is clogged, replacing it may very well improve your car's performance.

    Can anyone tell me how to change the fuel filter on a 94 volvo 850 2.3 turbo wagon?

    It's a '94 volvo wagon

    850 l. engine

    2.3 turbo

    ThanksCan anyone tell me how to change the fuel filter on a 94 volvo 850 2.3 turbo wagon?The fuel filter is on the under the passenger side of the car, in front of the rear wheel.



    It is bolted to the under body of the car with a large clamp.



    There are two hoses that attach to it.



    One 12mm bolt that holds the clamp.



    To take each hose off the car, you will need a large screw driver to slide the slip collar back which will release the tension so the hose will slide off of the filter (very easy to do). But don't pry at the hose, pry at the slip collar.



    To install, point the arrow of the filter to the front of the car and slide on the hoses.( with the hoses all the way on, tug on them to make sure they are on all the way).



    Good luck and be care full, gas is flammable.

It might take a little more to be fixed, but most manufacturers and safety experts recommend that you take it in for something like that. A friend of mine did his by himself and wound up putting it on the wrong way. I disagree with the answerer who said that you should have learned to do this stuff before driving the car because while you should know how to change your own oil and flat tires, a fuel filter should be left to someone who has been trained on how to do it. What I would recommend as far as the mechanic, go to the Nissan dealership in your area. They know your car. Don't take it to a quick lube shop or places like that. My fiancee took her car to a quick lube shop to get the transmission fluid replaced and we wound up having to have the car towed to another shop to have the problems they caused repaired.

    How important is changing your fuel filter?

Will my engine erupt in a fireball if I don't change it?How important is changing your fuel filter?On a scale of 1 to 5; with 5 being the most important, changing the fuel filter is about a 4.



    At 60k miles, your focus should more on regular oil %26amp; filter changes and other preventive maintenance.



    The fuel filter is not expensive and should be easy to replace. Your engine is not likely to suffer any damage (erupt in a fireball) if you don't change it.



    Check here for more information and discuss issues with other Focus owners:http://www.fordforum.com/m_20137/tm.htm

    Now I'm back to the old wisdom: %26quot;Don't fix it if it ain't broke.%26quot;How important is changing your fuel filter?Please do not worry. Nothing will go wrong with your engine and it will NOT erupt in a fireball.



    Air filters are not expensive, and since I do not know your market I cannot comment on the price.



    Air filters merely clean the air entering your engine by removing sand and dust which are abrasive in nature when they enter the insides of an engine. Delaying the change will only result in a bit of rich fuel mixture, since the shortage of air (with a choked filter) will tend to draw in more fuel per each engine cycle. I would suggest that you change the air filter at your convenience as soon as possible, yet do not worry about it unduly.



    In our part of the world if we do not wish to change the air filter, we merely remove it and blow compressed air from inside out which blows out the deposits and makes it good for a few more miles. But we do change it subsequently.How important is changing your fuel filter?Your car won't blow up or anything, but if you fail to replace the filter, impurities will eventually find their way into the fuel lines, the injectors, etc... It is considerably less expensive to replace the fuel filter as opposed to replacing or repairing fuel system components.

If there are interruptions in fuel flow, that's when you suspect fuel pumps or fuel filters.



    A fuel filter is usually pretty cheap-about $5 and you can change it following the directions in Chiltons Auto Repair manual.



    Fuel pumps can be a real bear to get at. Mechanical fuel pumps aren't too hard and may cost about $30. Your hands will get dirty. Electric fuel pumps are inside the gas tank and can be a major pain to get to. Get one from the dealer if it turns out you have a bad one- you don't want to use a cheap part you'll have to replace in a few years. Changing an electric fuel pump might be over your head if you never worked on cars or removed a gas tank from a car.



    If you pay a barrel of money getting all this work done and still have bad driving habits, you will not see any gains in gas mileage.



    Make sure the tire pressure is adequate. Put in a fresh set of sparkplugs if that hasn't been done for a couple of years.

    Where is the fuel filter located in a 96 toyota corolla?

    Is it a hard job to do? I want to change it myself. How long should it take to change it?Where is the fuel filter located in a 96 toyota corolla?I drove a 1999 Toyota Corolla and I wanted to change my fuel filter and found that you can't even buy the part. I would go into Auto Zone or Checker Auto Parts and it would always say 'NA' in the parts book.

    So I went to the Toyota dealership and asked for the part from them, and they told me the the fuel filter is attached to the fuel system in a way that it can't be replaced unless you replace the whole fuel system. The fuel filter isn't 'meant to be replaced.'

    So I never replaced mine because it was going to cost around $600 for the dealer to replace the fuel system.

    I don't know if maybe the dealer just gave me just some big speech and was trying to make money off of me but that is what I heard.

    Hope that helps some!

    Good luck!!Where is the fuel filter located in a 96 toyota corolla?Step 1: Open the hood and look on the driver's side to find the fuel filter. It is a somewhat small canister attached to the fuel line.



    Step 2: Disconnect the negative battery cable, and wait 90 seconds or more as a precaution against disturbing the air bags. Remove the protective shield around the fuel filter. If the air cleaner hose and cap and the charcoal canister are in the way, remove them as well.



    Step 3: Loosen the lower flare nut slowly to allow all the pressure out. Take off the banjo fitting and the two metal gaskets. Next disconnect the fuel line from the fuel filter. Finally, take the filter out of the mounting bracket.



    Step 4: Slide the new fuel filter into the mounting bracket and hold it with the arrow pointing toward the engine. Place a new metal gasket on each end. Attach them with the union bolt.



    Step 5: Tighten the flare nut on the lower connection. Put the charcoal canister back, along with the air cleaner hose and air cleaner cap if you removed them. Reattach the protective shield and hook up the negative battery cable. Check for leaks when you start your Corolla.
