I was recently listing to a call in car repair show where a caller mentioned of relocating the fuel filter to the engine compartment. It sounds like a great idea rather than grovelling under the driver's side rear wheel only to find that the fittings are seized because of exposure to road debris etc. Other than the safety aspect of gas spraying on a hot engine, it sure would make changing it much easier since the connections would probably be in better shape. Of course anyone who has attempted to change this filter knows depressurizing the line keeps the gas from getting in your eyes. Has anyone heard of or attempted to do this? Gas lines aren't that expenses and can be easily adapted for this.
