the 98 and 99 Plymouth neon's do not have a fuel filter, they have a fuel screen that right in line with the fuel pump. I found this out only yesterday when I was had to replace my fuel pump. If your car is not starting and blowing fuses for the fuel pump, you need a new fuel pump.
The filter is located in the pump, on the gas tank.
