Fuel filter how do you take the dual fuel filter clips off of a saturn vue 2002

Andrew Taylor has no clue , it's located in side the fuel take and is part of the fuel pump module . The fuel filter (1) is located in the primary fuel tank module. The paper filter element traps particles in the fuel that may damage the fuel injection system. The filter housing is made to withstand maximum fuel system pressure, exposure to fuel additives, and changes in temperature.

fuel filter or injectors dirty ,,but you lose nothing changing that pesky fuel filter

possible blowen fuse or a bad sending unit inside fuel tank also check the connections at the tank

----------This will help.Thanks.

Determine which fuel pump your Saturn VUE will need. This depends not only on the make and model, but also the engine size. Models made before 2008 may have a 2.2 L L61, 2.4 L BAS hybrid, 3.0 L L81 or 3.5 L L66 engine. Current models are offered with a 2.4 L LE5, 3.5 L LZ4 and 3.6 L LY7 engine.

Prepare your vehicle for fuel pump servicing. Relieve the fuel system pressure and disconnect the negative battery cable with a socket wrench. Disconnect the fuel tank.

Disconnect the fuel pump's electrical connector, fuel lines and hoses. Remove the retaining ring for the fuel pump with wrench SA9156E and disconnect the retaining clip by pulling it toward the float arm and lifting up. Lift the fuel pump out of the fuel tank and discard the old fuel tank seal.

Install the new fuel pump using the items included in the kit and be sure to replace the fuel tank seal. Install the lock ring on the fuel pump with tool SA9156E and connect the fuel lines and hoses. Plug in the wiring harness, connect the fuel tank and negative battery cable.

Start your vehicle to check for leaks.

I had exactly the same problem .Mine was corrected with replacing the O2 sensors .The sensors cost less than $30 each but cost about 20 mins labor per sensor .So if you got an honest mechanic the total cost will be around $130 .

The fuel filter is in the primary fuel tank on your vehicle.

if the fuel gauge doesnt work at all more than likly its the fuel level sending unit located in the fuel pump assembly, the only way to fix this is to replace the entire assembly, will run you roughly $300 just for the part.

When you change these fuel filters, they are basically gravity fed from the tank if the tank is full enough.You sometimes have to just hurry up in the fuel filter install process and slip that filter back in quickly, a little bit(sometimes more) will be spillled on the ground, can catch it with a drain catch bucket.Any questions get back to me, I HOPE I COULD HELP!!!

With no engine codes, there are a few things to check.
If your Saturn has over 50K a normal maintenance routine should include a fuel filter replacement, fuel injector cleaning and throttle body cleaning.
If that has been performed, you should have the fuel pump pressure checked. A good pressure reading should be 50 to 60 lbs. If it does not meet that specification, you need to determine if it is pressure regulator or fuel pump related.
Start at the beginning and let me know the status of the cleanings the engine you have and the mileage and we can go from there.
