This may be a dumb question, but I'm just getting into figuring this car out and hoping to save myself a little time as I've already been on other wild goose chases to solve a few problems. I'll admit that I haven't looked for this yet, but where is the most common spot that people install their after pump fuel filter? I did a search on here, but unfortunately the word "fuel" and "filter" or any combination of it basically makes the search useless without reading every thread that every person has ever posted on this forum.
Backstory:
I just purchased this vehicle with 263 miles on it and unfortunately 2 injectors were bad and the other 6 were grossly out of spec. The person I spoke with at Injector Dynamics specifically asked what fuel filter I'm using, and if it is a 10 micron stainless steel, to immediately change it to 10 micron cellulose. I confirmed after found receipts that it is a 10 micron stainless steel filter and they pointed to this being the likely culprit of why these injectors crapped out so quickly. He strongly recommended changing this filter PRIOR to installing the new injectors or I could just as easily muck those up in a few seconds.
Any guidance would be appreciated as the new injectors arrived today and the filter will be here tomorrow. I'm excited to begin enjoying my new car, but I want to make sure I do things properly.
