the fuel filter is marked in the box.
first mark each hose with a different mark. then simply remove the clamps and carefully pry off each hose connection.
if the hose is damaged 5/8" fuel hose can be used to replace pieces if necessary due to drying out rubber
Hi Joey, 2004 was a changeover period for fuel filter location....depending what month your Subaru was built, the pre 2004 models had the filter mounted under the bonnet in front of the brake cylinder, 2005 onwards is in the fuel tank!
Hi have you changed your fuel filter lately? That would be where i would start first, other causes could be fuel pump or blocked fuel lines, but i would start with a new fuel filter as thats the easiest, cheapest option
most fuel pump relays are located in the main fuse box,under the hood. look for a black box on the drivers side,or passenger side fenderwell under the hood. lift cover off and look on underside of the fuse box lid for location of the fuel pump relay and main engine fuse.hope this helps and thank you for choosing fixya.com
In 2005 Subaru moved the fuel filters to the fuel tank for both 4-cyl and 6-cyl cars. What is confusing is the statement in the owner's manual about replacement intervals; the statement actually only applies to 4-cyl cars. Even though the filter is mounted in the tank, this is still a replaceable element on 4-cyl, but not on 6-cyl. The 6-cyl filter element is part of the entire fuel pump assembly (a $300 assembly) and is not sold separately. Therefore the 6-cyl filter is intended to be a "lifetime" part, which really means it gets replaced when the fuel pump fails and the entire pump assembly is replaced.
