grandprix104 Posted October 15, 2003 Report Posted October 15, 2003 a fuel filter is a fuel filter $7-10 do it yourself - VERY EASY! Park somewhere it dont matter if gas leaks Unclip the one end unscrew the other look away while you pull it out JIC and wait for the fuel to stop running. screww in the other one and snap on the hose BANG your done turn your car to ACC till you hear the fuel pump stop wirring then fire it up Just in case you didnt know Quote

91GranSport Posted October 20, 2003 Report Posted October 20, 2003 Yeah, no shit! I replaced my fuel filter without even jacking my car up. Took me 5 minutes. I didn't even bother purging the fuel lines. Just popped the old fucker off and slapped the new one on. a fuel filter is a fuel filter $7-10 do it yourself - VERY EASY!

RareGMFan Posted October 24, 2003 Report Posted October 24, 2003 Of course, it's only that easy if the screw on the fuel filter cooperates instead of trying to take the fuel line WITH it! :shock: Quote
