Its probably a Cardinal Sin, but I reuse the header gaskets unless there is an obvious flaw. And no I do not have leaks. The fuel filter. In the engine bay find where the steering shaft exits the interior of the car. The filter is three inches directly below there. Or if you can''t find the steering shaft, find the brake booster and look directly below it and thar she blows. Thats a crummy job to do. I'd just as soon change out a differential mount. Don't break the rubber shock absorbers. Three I think.

ok while I was looking at the brake booster I saw this blue plug in that had a jumper wire going from one plug to the other
what is this thing right near the brake booster/master cyl for clutch area?

found the fuel filter. ok that looks like POS job to do for me
just trying to fix my idle probs so doing it step by step.
changed the plugs,tested the wires. fixed TPS, think I might have a plugged cat though when the header goes in that will be fixed. next comes the fuel filter.

The blue plug w/ jumper is for the stock alarm system. If you had one, the alarm would go there, if not, you get a nice little jumper wire Tell me how the fuel filter job goes, i need to do mine as well and wondered how messy it would be...
