Where is it? I'm not an expert as it shows. Just trying to learn more. I boguth a repair book, yet it doesn't say where it is.
Thanks in advance.

Hold your snickers. I bet my next question is dumber. Ha.

I don't think anyone should be laughing at a question like this...if you don't know...that's why were here..I have asked many questions before...a lot stupider don't worry...anyway to your question..If your planning on changing your fuel filter make sure your engine is COLD and has been sitting for at least a few hours. Anyway the fuel filter is located on the firewall in the engine bay...mine on my civic (1993) was located beside the battery pretty much. That should be good.??
Even on my Del Sol it's in the same spot.

Yeah your best bet is to put a few rags below it so incase you get gas all over the place you won't have it in your engine bay.

Excellent. Monro has suggested getting it changed. Also, my car his hesitant on acceleration, so it appears it needs a change. Also, whenever I turn off the engine, there's a clicking noise in the hood area. Might that be fuel filter?
Thanks much.

I have never noticed that sound before. Maybe since it's getting warmer it's started to make it?
