Hi,

The fuel filter is in the fuel tank along with the fuel pump. See pics (1-3) below.

The vehicle doesn't have a mass air flow sensor (MAF). In its place is a MAP (manifold absolute pressure sensor). Pics 4 and 5 are the directions.

I'm not sure if you have issues with these components, but if not, I would leave it alone. These vehicles are so sensitive to anything that isn't an OEM part. You may end up causing issues. However, that is your choice. LOL

Note: To access the MAP sensor, you will need to remove the charge air tube. Starting at pic 6 are the directions for removing it.

Take care,

Joe
