Where is fuel filter on a 1969 Pontiac gto?

The 1969 Pontiac GTO's fuel filter location isn't standardized like on modern cars. It depends on whether it has a carburetor or fuel injection (though fuel injection was extremely rare on 1969 GTOs, so it almost certainly has a carburetor).

For a carbureted 1969 Pontiac GTO, the fuel filter is typically located within the fuel line itself, often near the carburetor. It's frequently a small, cylindrical filter that's difficult to see without removing a section of fuel line. You might find it somewhere between the fuel tank and the carburetor. You'll need to carefully trace the fuel line to locate it.

Because of its placement and the age of the vehicle, expect some fuel spillage during inspection/replacement. Take the necessary precautions to avoid fire hazards (no sparks or open flames nearby).

Consult a 1969 Pontiac GTO repair manual specific to your vehicle's engine (e.g., 400 cubic inch, etc.) for the most accurate location diagram. A shop manual will give you the best chance of finding the filter's precise position.
