How to Replace the Fuel Filter in a Chevrolet Malibu

Model: Chevrolet Malibu MK 5 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Fuel filter

To replace the fuel filter in a Chevrolet Malibu, follow these simple steps: First, buy a new fuel filter from an authorised dealer. Lift the rear of the vehicle with a hydraulic jack and secure it with axle stands. Wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from any fuel splashes. Use a three-quarter spanner to hold one side, then use a 17 mm spanner to loosen the filter nut and remove the fuel hose. Once the old fuel filter is removed, replace it with the new one. Before tightening the new filter, apply Teflon tape to the threads to create a proper seal and prevent fuel leaks. Install the new fuel filter.
