Change Fuel Filter?

[Jarubell]

331333 kms should I change the fuel filter? Fuel mileage is not so great and i;m sure it has never been changed. How about that fuel pressure regulator, where is it? Is this a common issue?

Don't worry about the FPR. Chane that damn fuel filter though. Get a Motorcraft one. It's inside the frame rail on the drivers side.

Inside a brakcet off of the Radius arm bracket.

PITA to change but if it's never been done do it. You will also need a special tool. Napa or similar can help you with that too.

I went hunting in upper Minnesota-North Dakota near the border and I ended up near Lake Winnipeg. Thats around where you are, right? COLD-COLD-COLD there.

I am near lake Winnipeg. It's cold but this year it has been very mild except for this cold snap we're in for the last couple of weeks

BTW the stickies (threads @ the top of all the forums) contain FAQ type info. So they are a good area to start with when looking for answers..
