If not, that could make it more difficult to get the clips to release and if it does come loose it'll spray fuel everywhere, so make sure you do that first. Slide the tool over the clips as described in the instructions. You may have to push or pull the filter a little to get the clip to release, but it shouldn't be hard. Make sure there's no dirt in the clips, that'll make it harder also.

How do I change a fuel filter on a 2000 Ford Windstar LX?

I am looking for step by step instructions; do I need to shut the fuel off somehow first? Will fuel spray out at me? Should I do it on an empty gas tank?How do I change a fuel filter on a 2000 Ford Windstar LX?the fuel filter should be under the right side (when you sit in the driver seat). You will see two metal tubes go into a larger metal tube. The large one is your fuel filter. Get two line wrenches to fit the two nuts and loosen the nuts. Put a bucket under it because there is going to be residual fuel in the line when you disconect it. Take out the old one and tighten the new one in. Replace any brackets that held the old filter in. It may take a second for your car to start afterwards because the lines need to be primed again.

How come I can't get the new fuel filter on?

Hi all,

I went to put a new fuel filter on my 1992 civic. I got the old one off, and the flared fitting was kind of hard to pull off. I bought a purolator filter, and I can't get the flared fitting to go all the way back in.. It goes in some, and no matter how hard I push it, it won't go in... Is there a trick to this I'm unaware of. ThanksHow come I can't get the new fuel filter on?do the bottom flared part first, then the top.just make sure you dont coss thread it. its a pain sometimes.How come I can't get the new fuel filter on?make sure you have the right filter.

    Under vehicle, center, below rear seating area, rear passenger side of fuel tank, mounted in fuel line
