SOURCE: Replace Fuel Filter on 2006 Chevy Aveo Hatchback

If the fuel filter is mounted inside the fuel tank at the pump it does not need replacing and is a permanent filter. All you have to do it follow the fuel lines from the fuel tank to the engine. If the filter is mounted in the fuel line you will find it.

SOURCE: fuel filter for the chevy uplander

The fuel filter on this vehicle is located inside the fuel tank and is an integral part of the fuel pump module assembly. As such, it's not replaceable by itself and can only be serviced by replacing the entire pump module. It's a "lifetime" filter, in theory anyway, but it can plug up if there has been a large amount of crud that has gotten into the tank somehow. The best way to determine if the filter is restricted is to have the fuel pressure tested as part of a road test drive to see if the pressure remains steady [indicating a good pump and ok filter] or drops off [indicating a restricted filter or weak pump] Hope this helps!

Where is the fuel filter on a1991 Geo Prizm LSI Located?

PRIZM = toy corolla.
and is in front of the fuel tank. EFI system, USA .
you didnt look there first. or just want to be told.?

  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Relieve the pressure in the fuel line as follows:
    1. Fit a wrench of the exact size onto the upper line connection and fit a second wrench on the flats of the filter. This counter holding arrangement will prevent the filter and lines from turning during removal.
    2. Wrap the upper filter area in layers of rags to absorb spray and spillage.
    3. Slowly loosen the bolt holding the line to the filter. When the pressure is equalized, remove the bolt and the line. Plug the line immediately.
  3. Again using two wrenches, disconnect the lower line to the filter. Be prepared to deal with fuel spillage. Be very careful not to crimp or bend the fuel line. Plug the line immediately.
  4. Remove the filter from its holder.
it assumes you can find it.
any one can if you just look in front of tank or follow the 2 fuel lines
1 line lands on the filter. all it takes is just looking.

here are the steps for all cars, with external filters
1: depressurized the system using FSM steps. (or get a bath in fuel)(
2: find the filter, im sure you can do that following the main fuel line from the injector rail to the filter. (its a loop system)
supply line and return, the supply line is filtered on all cars made.
3: remove the 2 banjo bolts. using 2 wrenches, not 1.
4: remove filter. taking of the cars tire/wheel makes this more easy.

reverse above to get it back.
the filter has direction do not put it in backwards.

2001 Chevy Prizm has low fuel pressure. Fuel filter and fuel pump replaced twice.

I would replace the pressure regulator, and check the injectors for leakdown.

What parts do I need for a 1999 chevy prizm for a tune up?

Depending on your mileage, there are different things to change. Being that you have a 99, I'd do the following: oil and oil filter, air filter, spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap and rotor, fuel filter, and rotate your tires. Take a look at your brake pads and replace them if needed. Make sure your tires are around 36 psi at all four corners. Top off your coolant if needed, as well as brake fluid if needed. A tip for you to help out with this - buy a can of a product called Seafoam, and add half the can to your oil. Drive the car about 75-100 miles, and then change the oil and filter. It'll break down sludge and deposits and help the oiling system work better. For preventative care, do this every 5th oil change. Pour the other half into the fuel tank to clean that system.
