Disconnect the negative cable at the battery then loosen the fuel tank filler cap to relieve any fuel tank vapor pressure. Wrap a shop towel around the Schrader valve on the fuel rail and remove the dust cap from the valve. Connect the fuel pressure gauge to the Schrader valve. Install the free end of the gauge bleed hose into an approved gasoline container, and open the gauge bleed valve to relieve the fuel pressure.

Engine problem
1996 Chevy Monte Carlo V6 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 168000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I was coming home last night and my car started acting like it was running out of gas, but it had plenty. I think it's the fuel filter, but I can't find it to check it.
Can someone please tell me where the fuel filter is located on my 96 monte carlo?

Thanks in advance!

My info says it is under the vehicle, by the gas tank. Looks like a threaded fitting on one end and quick connect fitting on the other end. Don't take any lines loose without being sure there is no pressure on the system.
