Chevrolet: fuel filter, pep boys, fuel filter


Question
Roger, I asked you a couple of days ago about my police edition impala (loses power when trying to accelerate). Turns out all of the fluids are fine. My wires are a little scorched and my plugs will probably need to be replaced. But my question is how do I change a fuel filter? Is it rather simple? I don't want to get screwed by a mechanic (they quoted me 50 for the filter itself and the same one costst 10 at pep boys).  Thanks.

Answer
Chris, if you have burnt wires you will miss, pop,backfire, etc. so you will need to get new ones and not cheep ones as they will last you a week or two and you should also replace the plugs. and the fuel filter if its in the tank,you should go to the library and look in the tech books and they will show you how to do it all. or in a book store. ok the shops rip you off. get it at pep boys
