How do you R&R fuel filter (2 hoses in 1 out? Which is which?) What tools do you need & are there any resets or overides that need to be performed?

It's located just under the driver's seat on the frame rail.

You will need a 13mm socket/wrench, and a flat screwdriver to undo the supporting bracket/clamp respectively. A special tool is required on most models to release the fuel line; however, it is relatively cheap and can be obtained at your local parts store. It is used like a quick-disconnect to undo the fuel line.

Once disconnected the new filter is just snapped on the line with ease and the safety clips can be reinstalled and thus the filter remounted.
