Hi, Ted here. I just registered on your website. I have a 2001Mazda Protege 4cyl. 2.0
I'd like to thank you for putting the how to on your site. I'm replacing a fuel pump/strainer in a few days. I wasn't sure where the fuel pump was. Going through your info I found that it was in the same place as my 2004 Maxima. Under the rear seat. I do know the protocol of the removal and reinstall. Your diagram helped a lot.
Wish me luck.
Thanks for your published help!
Regards, Ted.
