Where is the fuel filter? Where is the fuel pump? If, in tank, can it be replaced without removing tank?

It is in the tank in the fuel pump assembly. It should not need periodic replacement for general maintenance. Lucky you. You can relax and enjoy the work you do not have to go through!

Your fuel filter (called the fuel strainer) is located in the gas tank at the end of the fuel sending unit..
