    Critical point... always check for Fuel leaks after you start it. Good Job.

    I apologize for the long vid, but this job can be a pain in the ass. So I figured I'd show what I went through!!

    For the 2010 model, Ford switched from a replaceable fuel filter located just in front of the fuel tank under the car, to a 'lifetime' filter which was part of the fuel pump. The fuel pump itself, meanwhile, is located inside the fuel tank, so that's where the filter lives as well. thats why I couldnt find one in front of the tank on my 2010.

      I'm aware. For some reason I have never thought to change the video title.

      Those models are in tank so they should last the life of the pump or car

    So is it for a 2000-2011 like it says in description or 2000-2007 like it says in the video?

    • @DefaultSlayer

      OZrider&beyond up to 2008. The new models have have fuel filters in the tank that are supposed to last the life of the car. Just a typo in both the video and description. Thanks for pointing that out though

      DefaultSlayer I thought after 2008 they went to in the tank filters but you had me second guessing so I looked under mine and no filter. 2009.

      OZrider&beyond sorry to waste your time, but I would count yourself lucky because the filter is a real pain to change!

    I was driving and i was pressing the gas and the car wouldn't speed up and it started making weird noises and now it won't start is that the fuel pump

    • @DefaultSlayer

      Could be alot of things....take starter fluid and spray it into the intake. If it starts you most likely need a fuel pump, but q correct diagnosis is needed
