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.....:idea:

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

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.
