  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

How difficult is it to remove and replace the fuel filter on the 2012 5.0 sedan?

Mine has not been replaced, and I just turned 94k miles.

If someone has the process steps from the mechanic book, I may try it myself.
 
I just finished the remove, rebuild, and reinstall of the fuel pump/fuel filter combination unit. Ever after removing the fuel pump fuse and running no the car until it died, the line still had 1/2 cup of pressurized gas.

Then removal from the tank on a 2012 is easy. The disassembly of the unit to replace the filter is a little difficult. Mine had 94k miles on it and was visibly dirty. I did not purchase or install a new screen, instead I just cleaned it.

Total work time was 90 minutes.
