Default Fuel Filter for 89 aires

Ok First I would like to say Im one of those people who doesn't know exactly what the names are for things but I can work on the car but I have a fairly simple question... the fuel filter (I believe is what It is) needs to be changed... the Haynes manuel is telling me that the filter is under the hood.... upon MUCH searching I couldn't find it BUT I found a part that looks like the replacement part .... only the manuel says NOTHING about it being where I found it.... It is under the car on the passenger side... Even in the section for the later models the manuel did not say it would be found where I did find it. Could you tell me if this is the fuel filter or if it just looks like the same thing.... If you need me to be more clear just let me know and Ill try to describe it more....

You found it...Its almost always under the car. It looks either like a little plastic bottle (mainly on fords) or a long oil filter.

Its a little metal can - think of a 5/8ths scale pop can with 2 nipples on 1 side. Its next to the fuel tank ironically.

That's it, you found it. Now throw away that Haynes comic book and get a Chiltons or a factory service manual.
