i don't know about the button, but resetting the ECU is done by pulling the fuse, but i don't know if you have an IMM system on board if that will work.

and the fuel filter is up front mounted to the inner side of the fender low by the crank pulley. it's a canister looking device.

thanks for the input.

some guyu look at it for me, he said he is a mechanic for 27 years now..

he opened my hood and there is a little button towards the back close to where the wiper blades are and he pulled off a little cap and there is a little button that he said thye needed to push in to reset it the fuel system.

then he went user the car and i guess he took off the filter and reconnected it. he said that should fix it, so i will have to see.
