Re: 93' Grand Cherokee Runs Rich? Codes
Hi Doug,
It did cross my mind to change the fuel filter. Going to do that tomorrow.
After all these miles (258K) I'm only on the second filter.
Thanks for all the help.
BTW, the old girl's been working pretty good the past two days.

The fuel filter is a 10,000-30,000 mile item on the 93
depending on how clean the local gas pumps are.
Real easy to get at, just remember to bleed off
the pressure at the fuel rail test port (looks like
a tire valve) Put a big wad of paper towel
under the valve before you press it cause gas is
going to come out. If you don't relieve the pressure
you will get showered soon as the fuel filter is
disconnected.
Be careful with the quick connects, they are
expensive to replace, use a fingernail or thin
jewelers screwdriver/mashed paperclip to free
the clips. You basically pry back the tabs so
they slip over the bump on the filter tubes..
Don't have a pic but you will see it when you
look at the new filter.
Before you put the new filter in, smear some oil
on the ends, that makes it easier on the old o-rings.
Use the rubber caps that come with the new filter to
block off the old filter ends
And finally, wear protective splash goggles and old
cloths because you will get gas running down your arm.

Hi Doug,
Where is it on your ZJ? I know it's inside the frame rail, on the
drivers side above the front half of the spring. There's a shield you
have to remove to get to it. I had to change a fuel pump before I
realize where my Thunderbird's one was.
