fergi Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 does anyone replace their fuel filter on a es300 1997. i have the fuel filter but i am wondering what the procedure is. i would gather the battery would be disconnected so the fuel pump is able to depressurize. do i have to pull off much in the engine bay to get at it.or is there a web site with instructions. thanks in advance for any info. fergi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George_Jetson Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Disconnecting the battery is a good idea to help prevent sparks. When you disconnect the fuel line, there will be some spray of fuel. I suggest waiting until the engine is cold and wear some safety glasses to keep the fuel out of your eyes. Otherwise there is not much to it.
