Cant find CV8Z Fuel Filter

[colgf]

Need advice- I have just purchased a 2005 VZ CV8Z Monaro . I am doing all the right things servicing it , however I want to change the fuel filter- Damned if I can find it under the car??? This Monaro (for US market I believe) has the fuel tank up behind the rear seat- I looked all around inside the boot , around the tank , under the car right up to the engine , cannot find any fuel filter??? Does this model not have a fuel filter??? Anyone have a pic or can tell me where it is please.....

could be an in tank filter, might explain why you cant find it

.... (posted something in the wrong spot). should be in the same place as any othe VZ tho

There is one in the tank (the service manual mentions cleaning it at about 200,000klm , but it also mentions replacing the external fuel filter underneath the car every 90,000klm. This is the one I cannot find.. HELP>>>>>>>

so it's not under the back of the rear drivers wheel ? up in the big gap there..... in clear line of sight?

Have a look around your fuel tank, find the fuel lines and follow them all the way back to your motor. you should find it that way

[andyperth]

Hi thanks for that. I did that still no luck I am starting to think it doesn't have one but just can't believe it wouldn't.

surely it has a ext fuel filter, call Repco and ask them to find it for you, that will tell ya

VZ monaros (and cv8z) don't have an external fuel filter. There is only a filter in the tank.

[$heepy]

same as vz one tonners. no external fuel filters. pretty crappy design really

They are pretty crap. I took my Turismo L76 there last year, and on the invoice they said it was an Impulse LS1. How stupid can you be.

The fuel filter is in the tank.
