How do I check and replace the fuel pump in my 02 Kia Spectra LS. I also need to check and replace the fuel filter. Where are these located and what is the best way to do it?

You are lucky this car has a trap door for the fuel pump in the tank. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed. Cheers

Fuel pump is located in the fuel tank. First check the fuse and fuel pump relay

Get to the engine controle module and ground pin # 1 brn/grn. See if you then have voltage out on pink/blk wire on the relay.

Electrical problem
2003 Kia Spectra 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

My 2003 Kia spectra isn't getting gas, the fuel pump is new and the fuses are good and the filter is clean, what could this be? It started after it was towed.

The fuel pressure regulator is incorporated into the fuel pump assembly inside the gas tank.
