2. Look Online: Search online for your specific year, make, and model (e.g., "2005 Chevy Cavalier fuel filter location") to find resources or forums with information from other owners.
3. Check Under the Hood: The fuel filter is typically located near the fuel tank or along the fuel lines. Look for a small, cylindrical metal or plastic container with fuel lines connected to it.
