The fuel filter is mounted on top of the fuel tank by 1 10 mm bolt. Remove this bolt (Spray some WD-40 on it first, so it won't break on removal). Then, squeeze together the plastic tabs at the ends of the fuel lines and pull the line(s) off. REMEMBER, THE FUEL IS UNDER HIGH PRESSURE AND WILL SPRAY WHEN YOU REMOVE THE LINES!!! KEEP ALL DROP LIGHTS AWAY FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE!!! You'll loose a couple cups full of fuel, be prepared!!. Also, when installing the new filter, put some motor oil on the lines prior to sliding the new fuel lines into place. This will prevent damage to the O-ring(s) in the new filter lines. Make sure the plastic tabs "snap" into place, try pulling on the filter line to make sure the clip(s) are engaged. And as Curious stated, you'll need to know the wheelbase of your van to get the proper filter.

92 subaru loyale new distributor and coil still no spark

Had the exact same problem and went through the whole dance. Traced problem to relay under the dash , combination ignition/fuel pump relay. The relay was "clicking" but was internally bad, it would not engage circuit for the ignition. Power was indicated at coil and fuel pump would run but the circuit was not complete through the computer to power the ignition sensor in the distributor. I actually had to "gang" 2- 12 vdc coil automotive relays to replace the original relay. Caution... if you decide to gang 2 relays be sure to separate the two circuits, one relay for ignition, one for fuel pump and tie the coil wires together.

My fuel gange just stop woriking what can i do

Hello,

Until you have your fuel gauge replaced, you can use a car computer such as the Scan Gauge II to remotely monitor your fuel levels through the car's OBD II port. A link is available below to the Scan Gauge home website.

Will turn over but not start put a new fuel pump in it if you poor gas in to the throttle body it will start for a min until gas runs out

I had the same problem with my old 1987 Chevy blazer s10. The problem was the ground wire of the fuel tank was rusty and it broke. So simple was the problem. But before that, I checked and change the fuses, the fuel filter, the oil pressure switch (this is related to the fuel pump to) and finely when a was ganging the fuel pump saw that the ground wire was broken or damage.


I hope this can help you.
