Fuel filter is in front of right rear wheel. PCV is on passanger side of engine under a half dollar size cap. It'* spring loaded so push down and turn.

Valerka. You need to tell us which car you're talking about, and update your signature. The location of these two componenets depends on which car you have/are talking about. There are 2 different locations for the fuel filter, and 2 different locations for the PCV.

Fuel filter is not forward of the rear tire. It'* on the inside of the right front frame rail, just beneath where your passenger'* feet would be. You'll need needlenose pliers to disconnect it.




See the little black square cover on the SC? The corner closest to the driver? That'* the PCV cover. The one with two little hex screws.

If the car wasn't supercharged, it would be on the other end of the upper intake.
Click on Profile in the top right corner of the screen, then edit your signature. From now on, you need to clearly state which car you're asking about.

Those are for the rear. Your rear shocks aren't gas, they're air-adjustable ELC struts. Those struts won't work for you.

I have stock struts in the back, Gabriel in the front. Either Gabriel or Monroe should be fine for the front.
