Where is the fuel filter on a 1985 351 carb ford bronco?

On a 1985 Ford Bronco with a 351 cubic inch carbureted engine, the fuel filter is typically located in the fuel line, somewhere between the fuel tank and the carburetor. It's not always in the same exact spot, as there might be slight variations based on specific options or modifications.

However, the most common location is on the frame rail, near the fuel tank. You'll likely find it as a cylindrical canister with fuel lines connected to it. It might be secured with a clamp or straps.

To be absolutely sure, I recommend:

* Checking your owner's manual: If you have the original owner's manual, it will have a diagram showing the location of the fuel filter.

* Consulting a Ford Bronco repair manual: These manuals provide detailed diagrams and instructions for your specific year and engine. Haynes and Chilton are popular brands.

* Visually inspecting the fuel lines: Start at the fuel tank and follow the fuel lines towards the carburetor. The filter will be somewhere along that route.

Be careful when inspecting the fuel system; fuel is flammable. If you are not comfortable working on your vehicle's fuel system, it's best to take it to a qualified mechanic.
