I am having a problem with the car and hoping a new fuel filter may help correct the problem?

It's on the frame by the fuel tank, just follow the fule line you'll fin dit. Pressure shold be 35-45 if under that replace pump.

I DO NOT recommend changing any clamps on your fuel filter. This is a high pressure system and squeeze type clamps are not used for a reason. They are unsafe. The factory quick connects are designed to withstand the pressure associated with these systems.
