Can anyone tell me where to find my fuel filter in my car. i have a 2003 tiburon v6 2.7. Many people have told me its in the gas tank, so i look and theres no filter there. The filter needs changed badly, and i believe thats why my check engine light is coming on. I plugged in my little computer and i cam up with three engine codes, P0507, P0121, and P0101 and they all were saying (pending). So any help would be greatly appreciated.

The filter IS in the tank, attached to the fuel pump. It''s just a "sock" filter. Ther is no "in-line" filter.

P0101 = Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Range/Performance Problem
P0121 = Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch A Circuit Range/Performance Problem
P0507 = Idle Control System RPM Higher Than Expected

As you can see, none of the codes has to do with a dirty fuel filter. Get your MAF cleaned and have the TPS and IAC checked.
