I can't locate fuel filter on 2006 Nissan Altima

SOURCE: Location of oil filter on Nissan Altima 2005

The oil filter is located behind the right (passenger) inner fender cover. It is right next to the crankshaft pulley at the bottom of the front of the engine facing toward the right front wheel. I do not have a picture at this time.

Hope this is helpful!

Most of the time there is an inlet screen/filter in fuel tank attached to fuel pump. But there should be another filter between tank and fuel rail. it should be located on the firewall, so if you work backward from an injector toward the gas tank you will bump right in to the filter along the way.

filter is inside of the fuel tank and its a part of the fuel pump assembly. you need to remove the bottom section of the rear seat via 2 clips at the bottom of th eseat.you need a special tool to remove the lock ring on the top of the fuel tank. you wil also need a new o-ring to close itback up. the whole pump assembly has to come out and disassembled to replace flter. good luck.
