Replacing the Fuel Filter


Hey guys i was gunna replace the fuel filter, it looked like it had been a while but my question is do i have to get a "special" one or anything b/c i have an aftermarket fuel pump (in tank) 190 LPH. And i dunno if i need a special one that can continue to filter the fuel with that much pumping through it or not. If so can you give me a link to a website or something i can compare it to please? Thanks!
Finally if anyone has done this before is there anything i should be aware of when doing thing, will or should i get any kind of "cleaner" or anything else when i order the filter. And also will i have gas dumped on my face when i go to change this thing? lol. Figured i would ask now so hopefully i dont burn my eyes out or something. Heh, well thanks guys for any and all comments and help! - The Novice.

First all you have to do is make sure that the filter is for fuel injection and not carbed.

2nd there is that fuel button in the trunk, unplug that wire harness and start the car and let it run untill it dies.

then pull the plastic clips off and unbolt the old filter and make sure to save your clips.

its really easy to do.

They do make some hi flow ones but I dont know if you would be wasting your money getting one or not.
