Just wanted to say a big thank you to TRS and the TECH LIBRARY. I changed my fuel filter today because #1 I bought the truck with 129,000 miles on it and did not know if it had been changed before and for under $20 why not? #2 The truck just started having really rough idle (almost to the point of stalling) at different times- always at a redlight. I attributed it to this one particular gas station I had been refueling at for the last 3-4 fill ups. (I cleaned the MAF and the IAC- so I narrowed down to the fuel filter)
In case you are wondering- it is the 7-11 in Elton MD right off 95.
So back to my original sentiment. It is because of the tech library on how to change the fuel filter was successful at completing it without making multiple visits to the auto parts store. I read the article, got the right tools, identified the plug on the passenger floor to disconnect to relieve the fuel pressure and was able to get er done. The only thing about the tool that confused me was how it actually works- youtube provided that answer HERE
another successful DIY project thanks to TRS!
by the way- when I poured the remaining gas out of the filter it was muddy brown!
