After finding your car didnt have an air filter are you making sure it now has a fuel filter??? Anyway, the fuel filters on the 924S(should be the same) are on the passenger side of the car just inside of the wheel well. If you note the fuel tank above the tranny follow the lines from the tank towards the front of the car. You'll see it! Its pretty easy access...

Good Luck, hope you find one there

jaibeiber, when you have your hood open, and you are facing the passenger compartment, it's in front of the driver's side, down in front of the fire wall, if I'm not mistaken, a canister looking device.

Also, check www.clarks-garage.com

I've found them to be very helpful! You will find it, don't worry.

Are you thinking of the emissions canister behind the wheel well? I didnt think 924S and 944 are different in their positioning of the fuel filter. But i could be wrong...

Um, I could be wrong! I can't remember which car I changed it on, either my 944 or Celica, lol, ergo, the reference to Clark's garage, heh.

The fuel filter on my 968 is where Erich said. There also is a smaller canister shaped device like Julie mentions where she said to look. I forget what that one is called but I have seen it labeled before. I have a new fuel filter to swap in so I have a positive ID on the fuel filter.

Not that I care about you posting here, but the search tool is usually a lot faster than posting. You just have to refine your searches a little. I did a search for location fuel filter and came up with https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...on+fuel+filter
