Urgent help needed

Hey guys, I have a friend with a 99 TL, and he's stranded right now cause he has a problem with his fuel filter. I searched and the only thing I could come up with is that the filter is by the intake manifold (whatever that is). I couldn't find it. I need to know what it looks like and where it is located at. I told him I'd get back to him tonite sometime... if anyone knows where its at, please respond, or IM Comet2404 on AIM. thanx a million.

I doubt the fuel filter would be near the intake manifold, i would think it would be under the car near or possibly in the gas tank or possibly along the fuel line near the middle of the car.

btw, you need to shrink your signature pic...its way to big

I guess if you took the time to actually search using 'fuel filter' you would have found it as easily as i did.....here:

I dont think our cars have a Inline fuel filter. The only Filter we have for the fuel is the fuel screen which is located inside the fuel tank. You will have to buy a fuel screen (about $55) to replace it.
