I installed my new injectors tonight. Since I was doing this I also changed the fuel filter. It was easier than I thought it would be. I put in a set of Bosch III's from FIC. The car idles a lot better.

Yeah, changing the injectors wasn't too bad and it made a HUGE difference in mine too.
FIC is awesome! |

Everyone makes the fuel filter out to be a huge job, but it's not. Good job on getting it taken care of. Just a tip to others, be careful to to round off the nuts

It actually took me longer to change the filter on my S10. It was stuck in the holding bracket, so I had to remove it to get the filter out. I did like the quick connect that was on it. Why don't they just put them on both sides.

agree if you have a coupe and the right tools. It was a small PITA with the Vert, got to remove one of the "X" braces. |

It is a pain to change the fuel filter with that x brace. Takes 1 hour. |

It didn't cause me any issues. I didn't even jack up the car to reach the filter. Glad I have a coupe!

I'm thinking about relocating my fuel filter by the A/C condenser within easy reach. A few AN fittings and Stainless Steel braided hose and I'm there. I hate the current location what was GM thinking.
