The fuel filter for the 1989 Jeep Cherokee is up inside the frame rail on the driver side near the rear wheel. If you have electronic fuel injection, release pressure in the fuel line at the fuel rail at the front of the engine. there is a knurled cap that you screw off and press on the valve stem with a small tool. Be careful because its under pressure briefly.
Also DON'T do this with a warm engine A shop towel over the valve will help absorb the small amount of fuel. Once the pressure is relieved simply remove the clamps on either side of the fuel filter, and remove the old filter. The new filter can now be installed and you're done.
Turn the key on, you don't need to start it, and check for any leaks since the fuel pump will pressurize the fuel line. You should be good to go.

What is the mileage on a 1990 Jeep Cherokee Laredo?
The "acceptable" mileage for a 1990 Jeep Cherokee Laredo should range from 192,000 miles to 280,000 miles. This calculation takes into consideration a 1990 Laredo bought in the year it was available for sale, such as 1989 all the way to 1990 and multiplying the length of time until today (2007) by either 12,000 miles or 15,000 miles in a year, which is still considered acceptable.
