under the car, in the back under the trunk right in front of the fuel tank. you will need to raise the car a bit to access it. Take you your fuel injection fuse and open the fuel cap before removing the fuel filter. And be very careful with those plastic clips on the smaller end of the fuel filter. If you break them before the filter comes out it will take you 3 hours and a whole lot of muscle to force it out. I learned that the hard way.

Follow the fuel lines forward to the engine from the fuel tank. Somewhere on the line you will find the fuel filter.
Try back near the fuel tank. if it is the same as my sunfire it is right behind the gas tank.
next to the tank
it at the back of your gas tank
The fuel filter on a 2002 Pontiac Sunfire is in the rear between the fuel tank and the rear axle. By the way its under the car and easy to change takes about 10 minutes.
I know that on a '96 the fuel filter is an in-line type near the fuel tank. As Pontiac hasn't really altered much on the Sunfire in over ten years, I'd suggest starting there.
