How do you change fuel filter on 1987 Toyota Celica gt?

Answer 1

The fuel filter is located on the driver's side of the engine compartment just below the master cylinder on the firewall. You'll need to remove the rubber air intake hose as well as the air filter box to access the top of the fuel filter. The top banjo bolt takes a 17mm socket. For access to the bottom you'll need to remove the drivers side wheel. There is a small access hole just about big enough for one hand to fit in there. You'll need a 14 or 15mm open end wrench. Once you have both fittings off unbolt the filter from the firewall by removing the two 10mm bolts. Bolt the new filter in place before connecting hoses. The new filter should come with two compression washers (brass colored) these go on either side of the banjo fitting on the top of the filter. It's a good idea to disconnect the battery before starting to prevent someone from turning the key and energizing the fuel pump. Hope this helps.
