The fuel filter is part of fuel pressure regulator. The regulator is on top of fuel pump module, top of gas tank.

Replace fuel filter >

Fuel pump supply the fuel to the rail
so you need to check the fuel pressure and volume
and if all ok then you move on to the injectors and so on
but fuel pressure should be checked at 1st step.

It's attached to the top of the fuel pump and doubles as the fuel regualtor as well. The fuel tank will have to be dropped to get to it.

The fuel filter is located on the frame rail in front of fuel tank. The inlet and outlet ends of the filter are marked for correct installation.

Make sure there is no pressure on the line before taking anything loose. Looks like a quick disconnect fitting for the filter, not sure which type?
