yeah, takes about 10 mins....that includes washing ur eyes out after getting fuel in them. so if your carefull, it could be done in half that. i open the filler cap to release the pressure instead of running the engine dead.

steaky says to make it cock a leg in this thread viewtopic.php?f=5&t=28782&hilit=vitara+fuel+filtermitch, opening the cap won't remove the pressure in the fuel lines. that's why they suggest pulling the fuel pump fuse or the relay.

I'm confused. Thread title asks about filter location but first post asks about pump location.
Which do you want to find?

thats cool.  FYI the pump is in the tank, with no access hole in the floor so it's a drop tank job to replace.
