kerandt Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Sorry, the fuel pump is under the car, rear passenger side. Look for the mounting plate the pump sits on. Filter should by right next to it. Can't remember which side of pump, it's been awhile. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheinen74 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 what year did they move the ea82 filter up to engine compartment? My old 93 parts car Loyale was up under the hood but i guess it was the fuel injected foem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably started putting the fuel filter in there in late '87. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably started putting the fuel filter in there in late '87. My '87 GL (made in april of 87) has an inline filter in the engine bay. It's carbed, just like that one (although, my whole engine bay is black and grimey ). There may be another by the pump, but I know there is one under the hood. It's not hard to find, just follow the fuel lines off the carb until you hit it. IIRC, it's near the distributor, but I'd have to double check. Also, it looks like an EA82, which would be OHC (SOHC, to be more specific). But, you can double check, the engine model is stamped on the top of it. You can see the EA part in your picture, between the power-steering pump-pulley and the oil dipstick. EA82 = OHC, EA81 = OHV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no clue where the fuel lines are? can you just show me where it is in the engine bay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Normally its right there on the driver side, up by the firewall.. See the Round silver can in a holder with the Fuel lines, up by the wiper motor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the Round silver can in a holder with the Fuel lines, up by the wiper motor? I do see that. I think i looked for it a couple months back and it was back under the car near the right rear. i will look again tomorrow. I ordered a new fuel filter none the less.
