fuel filter change
 

well i just thought id ick up a fuel filter today for the cobra...
just wanted to know where it is before i go at it.
i know its not under the hood...but where is it located under the car?
just so i dont have to jack the car up server times finding it :toilet:

right by the rearend....bring the car over to the house and i'll show ya

thanks buddy!
yup right infront of the gas tank up high.
EASY change....just watch for gas in the EYES!!!! :bird:

ok my fukin filter will not come out. is there a special tool i need? this filter is original and hasnt been replaced with 39000 km on a 01 gt

no special tool, just pry the brackest a bit and it should come out.

pry it? i tried to wiggle it out but the damn thing still wont budge. there really isnt anywhere you can pry on it to get it to pop out :2:

there is a special tool you can buy

and it's worthwhile.....if you damage the fuel line.....you'll be pissed

good to know...
would they your style be different than mine?

because all i did was take the plastic peaoce out of the ends of teh lines, and poped them off.

then unclamped the bracket around the filter, wiggled and wiggled, then pryed a bit, the walla!

don't know......but I've been in a position where the connection did break, and a custom line had to be fabbed.....not something you want to have happen in your driveway....and the Ford replacement pieces are stupidly priced and likely not in stock

not a worry for me now.....I'm running a #8 SS line from the rails right to the tank...with a Magna fuel filter....all anodized fittings etc
