opps I misread your post..

look at the air filter box and look on the right... there should be a red fuel line... that fuel line has the fuel filter connected to it.

Yea I found it, thanks! It was right there, how could I have not seen it!?!?!? At least its easier then going under the car. Yea, my parents were the orginal owners, I later took it. Thanks for your help again.

yes ! mine runs fine ! the primary filter ( near the tank ) is the important one !

Looks like a filter but I read somewhere it is a "separator" whatever that means.. Some mechanics replace it with a normal fuel filter like the main one. I got an old one, maybe I'll open it up.

would it help any if u removed the filter in the engine bay? seems like it would let more fuel flow or something, i could be wrong

fuel filters supposed to be designed so they won't restrict flow ! so i don't think you have to worry !
