below and between the air filter box and brake fluid reservior on the driver's side. make sure you use a flare wrench when you disconnect the fuel line, or else it will strip. that thing is on tight.

1. Get your laptop and sit in your car. If you don't, get one or disassemble your current computer, hook it up in your car and continue.
2. Log onto http://www.solaraguy.org/
3. Click on the "Search" button.
4. Type in "fuel filter" and then click "Search"
5. There would be many results, but this is not to be of concern.
6. To save you time, I'll just say it's between the brake fluid reservoir and the air filter box.

7. VERY IMPORTANT: Follow the instructions mentioned. If not, your blinker fluid would run low. (all joking aside, this is the type of thing that gets people flamed, so be careful).

Ah In my opinion searching are gay. With our forum growing so fast its like trying to jack off in public. Almost Impossible to get your answer in search no days. Better to just ask and get answers faster.

you coulda just got away with the "it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack" analogy and we all would have gotten your point.
