2001 I30 with 105k and 2 questions - Plugs and Fuel

[Mike G]

Well after a less than cookie cutter no help answer from another section of the forum, I turn to my Brothers of a feather... I like to absorb all the info I can before undertaking a procedure, therefore, I am asking the pros. The little buggy has made it to 105k on the ticker and I want to put in new plugs and change the fuel filter. The filter I presume would be an inline unit, from looking at what's available from the local parts houses. Is this inline under the car or the hood? I see that Mitchell lists this out at a .7 job, so it has to be pretty accessable. Second, I can manage the front bank of plugs, but whats the method to tackle the rear bank plugs. After seeing that this is a 1.2 hour job, the process can't be too involved. It takes me that long to do my 5.7L V8...Thanks all, --Mike

The fuel filter should be on the fire wall near the brake booster. I'm not 100% usre on the plugs, but you may have to take off the upper intake plenum to gain access.
