Where the hell is the fuel filter located on this car?? I just bought new plugs, wires, etc, for a tune up and the filter the parts store gave me is a metal type canister that has threads on one end (female) and what appears to be a clip connector of some type on the other. It also has a attached bracket with a mounting hole. ( looks like it should bolt to something ) The chilton book shows the location under the master cyclinder (2000 and earlier) but does not mention the 2001. I'm at a loss, any help would be appreciated. Maybe its the wrong filter?? Even so, I can't seem to loate a fuel filter of any type anywhere. Thanks, Chief Tom

You have a 1996-2000 fuel filter ... the fuel filter for the XD is in the fuel tank (as shown in the link James gave you).

You should buy it at a dealership (I don't think you can find it at an auto part).

just go to the dealer the fuel filter is no more than $30 bucks.

The DIY is very easy, just follow each step by step and double check your work to make sure you dont miss anything.
