Fuel Filter????
so i was doing some reading on here about the fuel filter. i can't believe they put it in the gas tank must of been the same two engineers discussing where to put the oil filter on the 4.7L like that guy posted lol. but any who i was wondering if anyone on here has changed theres and what does it take to drop the gas tank and change the filter. Im the kind of person that hates to have to pay someone to fix my vehicles unless i need it done asap. any help would be great thanks.

RE: Fuel Filter????
From the maintenance manual:
Both fuel filters (at bottom of fuel pump module and within fuel pressure regulator) are designed for extended service. They do not require normal scheduled maintenance. Filters should only be replaced if a diagnostic procedure indicates to do so.
INLET FILTER
REMOVAL
The fuel pump inlet filter (strainer) is located on
the bottom of the fuel pump module (Fig. 27). The
fuel pump module is located inside of fuel tank.
(1) Remove fuel tank. Refer to Fuel Tank Removal/
Installation.
(2) Remove fuel pump module. Refer to Fuel Pump
Module Removal/Installation.
(3) Remove filter by carefully prying 2 lock tabs at
bottom of module with 2 screwdrivers. Filter is
snapped to module.
(4) Clean bottom of pump module.
Doesn't really seem worth it unless you know something is wrong.
