Fuel Filter changing

I have a 1994 2.2 VTEC import.

I want to change the fuel filter and know that it is on the right of the fuse box from what i have read..?

Can someone send me a pic of it and a step by step instruction of how to change it?

thanks

it's the little canister thing to the right of the fuse box i 14 mm wrench will do the trick on th top fuel will leak out, i think there is 4 10 mm bolts holding the bracket on it's really simple to change.

Re: Fuel Filter changing (shabasoft)

remember to remove the gas cap to alleviate fuel pressure, you don't want fuel sprayin on your face when you remove the fuel filter.

Re: Fuel Filter changing (lude_roller)

its a pretty straight forward job. although its in an awkaward place and the bolts/nuts might be little hard loosen at first. other than its easy. pretty self explanitory

Re: Fuel Filter changing (Deckedlude)

The easiest way to remove it will be with a line wrench, not your run of the mill open ended wrench. A line wrench has two more sides to keep it from slipping on the nut

Off the top of my head i beleive it is recommended every 30,000 miles.

So in other words, CHANGE YOUR FUEL FILTER
