1998imp Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Hello I'm new here and new to Subaru. I have a 1998 2.2l Imprezza and its time for me to change the fuel filter. I was wondering if anyone had any tips/hints on how I could do this easily. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 it's pretty simple. Typically if you let the car sit overnight the pressure in the fuel system will go away. The filter is next to the driver's front strut tower. You just unscrew the clamps holding the lines on, put the new one on, and tighten the clamps.

I only had it turned off for less than two hours, and the fuel that did leak out was only a few ounces. It is really quick and easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
