Infinity I30 fuel filter replacement?

[dukester]

Does anyone know of an EASY way to replace the fuel pump on a '97 I30 (besides having someone else do it)? There is so little room to maneuver even a stubby screwdriver behind the engine by the firewall mount for this thing, it's almost hard to imagine doing it without pulling the whole engine (or at least the fuel delivery system)!

I haven't been able to locate any service manuals (other than expensive factory ones) for this model, nor any diagrams or helpful how-to's anywhere online.

err filter? The hoses tend to stick. Typically theres enough free hosing just to cut the old one out with a boxcutter. Btw there might be some more info if u clic seek top left "Favorite Links" at http://www.cardomain.com/ride/748507/25. If there isnt space enough, buy some new hosing and cut the original where u have access... and tie wrap it afterwards.

After loosening the screws, apply some wd40 or any kind of lubricant to where the inlet and outlet of the filter meet the fuel hoses and start twisting. It should make the job a little less traumatic.
