I need to know where the fuel pump is located on the vehicle listed above SR5 1.6l coupe RWD. I recently replaced the fuel filter, and it still stalls out and sometimes it struggles to start.

If it is the carbureted version the pump is mounted to the side of the engine. If it's the fuel injected version it is inside the fuel tank. To check if it's the pump in the injected version you disconnect the fuel line and attach a gauge, then measure the pressure. With the vacuum line on the pressure regulator you should see 24-32 PSI, with it disconnected the pump should be able to go up to about 40 PSI.
