cliff880 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I have been been renovating a 1987 Dolphin that has been in storage for the last three years,it has the 22E fuel injected engine with 139,000 miles on it.The mileage doesn't bother me because it will be used mostly within a 50 mile radius.I have compiled a check list of things that should be done before I tag it and I have hit a brick wall when it comes to the fuel filter!!Some say it's mounted on the firewall!NO Others say it's on the inner frame!NO and I've come to the conclusion that it must be inside the tank but I'am not sure,can anyone help??

Cliff The fuel filter on the 22re is located right above the starter, mounted to the side of the engine block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bufbooth Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Hallalueah!! Thanks to someone I found it! Thanks I have owned a few Toyotas in the past, years 1984 to 1990 and depending on the model, I have found the fuel filter on the inside of the frame directly below the passenger's seat and also near the driver's side rear wheel. Be sure to use a torque wrench with the metal fuel filters, too tight or too loose will cause leaks. I think the correct torque is 14 pounds, but it should be marked on the filter or its instructions. Also, you will need what is called a crow or claw foot socket, which is an openned ended wrench that can be attached to a socket torque wrench. Dennis...
