Car cuts out and sputters, I'm sure the problem is in the fuel filter.

Hello,
The fuel filter is located under the rear seat in a compartment above the fuel tank. Also, there is a strainer located at the bottom of the fuel pump in the tank.
Keep in mind that the engine can sputter due to not getting proper spark or having vacuum leaks.
I have attached diagrams below for your reference.
Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
