Hey guys,
I was trying to replace my fuel filter today on my '95 Protege ES, and I just have no idea how to get to it. It's behind the intake manifold, bolted onto the firewall. There's very little space to maneuver, and I can't even see the fuel-in hose. Anyone have any tips/tricks on doing this? It'd be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!

There quite annoyin to do, there is 2 10mm nuts that hold the bracket to the firewall. If you lay ontop the engine and look over the back, you will see the hoses that are on the filter, I did mine from the top and the bottom, you just got to do most of it by feel. I spray the hoses up with pb blaster and then try to work em off, wear some glasses so gas and anything else doesnt fall in ur eyes when ur underthere.
