I would like to check to see if my fuel filter is bad. Can someone tell me where the C6's fuel filter is located and is it easy to replace? Thanks

In the fuel tank. No service required according to GM.

And you will hope it never has to be changed once you read the shop manual and see all of the work that is required to change the filter. You have to pull the fuel tanks.

That sucks, no service required just like the 100k plugs.
This is one draw back for a c-6, glad it's not many.

Agreed...I'll never have my plugs in the car for 100K...but I'm also not pulling the gastanks to change a filter.

That's what GM says, but what if you get a bad tank of gas.
