2000 Hyundai Accent--77,000 miles

I want to change my fuel filter. I was told by the dealer that it is
located in the gas tank. Can this be changed quite easily by myself or do
u recommend that I take it to my mechanic?

THank you very much.

 

How comfortable are you working around flammable liquids and explosive
vapors? Seriously, you can do it yourself, but you do need to be careful.

 

Have u ever done it? What type of tools will I need?

 

Not on a Hyundai, but I have on a Saab. The Hyundai Webtech site should
have detailed instructions and a tool list for your vehicle.

 

On your car, I believe it's above the fuel tank, not inside. There's a
little access panel you pull off under the rear seat. If I recall
correctly, the fuel filter's right there. A bolt or two and quick
disconnect fittings on the lines.

 

thank you.

 

thank u.
