Ok, I'm in need of some advice on how to take off the fuel filter and replace it. I know to take off the passenger side tire and I know where the fuel filter is located, but how in the hell do I get up in there and loosen that damn thing? I've heard of taking off the starter too, but even that is hard to get to. any advice that I'm missing? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated, as always.

 

How about details on vehicle & engine?

 

94 toyota pickup 22re 2.4L 4cyl

 

very simple. Get a long extension and a 3/8 ratchet with a 17mm short socket... or you can use a half inch ratchet... go under neath thermostat housing and back a little until you find the bolt... and for the rear line going from the filter to the intake, get a 17mm wrench in there.... all i can say i guess..

 

its just a PITA!! what yoter said works well. get used to it tho, lots of tight spots on that rascal!!
