Have any of you guys replaced the fuel filter or fuel pump on your B15 Sentra?Ive replaced fuel filters on other cars but they were located on the outside of the car unlike the the B15 sentras which fuel filter and fuel pump is located in the fuel tank.I was told that I would need to take of the back seat in order to access it. Is it any harder to change the fuel filter or fuel pump on this car than it is on any other car? Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks

I haven't actually changed the fuel pump on a B15 but I did it in my wife's Subaru Impreza and it was located under the back seat. Once you see the cover where it's at, it's not difficult, just disconnect any wiring harnesses and fuel hoses. Make sure you open the gas cap to relieve any pressure and they also recommend that you disconnect the fuel pump relay and start the car till it stalls (maybe a minute or two for excess gas to be sucked in). This is a just a generalization - I previously had a 2004 Sentra but I never touched the fuel pump
