Hi AARON,

I attached the procedure for the filter. It looks like it is on the tank. Please let me know if you need more information. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed. Thanks

Is it possible to install an electric external fuel pump? I am getting on in years and want make repairs easier. Having to replace the one in tank is going to be cost prohibitive for me.
I have priced parts to be around $160.00 plus. The labor is probably going to be quite high.

Not really as the in tank unit also has the fuel pressure regulator built in. Your external pump would have to draw through the in tank unit and have an external regulator.
The pump assembly is around $120.00 for the OEM Bosch pump. Labor depends on the shop. It is not a hard one to change but if you are in the rust belt it could be worse.

What's the symptom? Except for diesel engines, you will never solve a running problem on a Chrysler product by replacing the fuel filter. They pass the largest amount of fuel during coasting. They actually have to pass the lowest volume while accelerating.

Hi, my info was basic about the location. Under the vehicle, ahead of fuel tank. Sorry, I don't have a picture of location. The filter picture is from napa.
