Fuel Rail Valve??
I'm attempting to change my fuel filter for the first time in my '03 Grand Am 4 cyl and need to release the fuel pressure. Can anybody help me find the location of the valve? Thanks in advance!!

I read up in a haynes manual that taking off the gas cap helps release pressure for the most part.... Post some more info of how it goes, and your setup...

theres another way for that. just go to the under-hood fusebox and take out the fuel pump relay and attempt to start the car. it may start and run for a second then die out. then all the pressure is relieved. thats what i usually do.

Re: Fuel Rail Valve??
To answer your question the fuel shradder valve is on the pass side of the engines rear fuel rail.
Its right next to the alternator, might have a cap over it might not. It can be a PITA ! For more tips on the filter you can check the recent thread in the Grand am forums.
