I need to find my fuel filter and change it.
Where can I find it in my car? I hope it isn't in gas tank. Plus I am tired of my car shuting off and having a hard time starting up.

Crawl under and look right in front of the right rear tire, alongside the frame. Should be a canister roughly the size of a condensed soup can there.

Oops. Bad info here. It'* located behind the right FRONT tire. Inside the passenger side subframe rail under the car. 10mm wrench and large needlenose pliers are all you need.

But if your problem is that the car is hard to restart after shutdown (i.e. a warm restart requires lots of cranking), maybe your fuel-pressure regulator has sprung a leak. Find it on the end of the fuel rail on the engine, pull its vacuum line and see if gasoline comes out. If so, that'* your culprit.
