* In the fuel pump: Many 1967 Impalas had the fuel filter integrated into the fuel pump assembly itself. This is the most common scenario. You'd find it on the fuel pump, which is typically located on the engine block near the fuel tank.
* Separate filter in the fuel line: Less common, but some might have a separate, external fuel filter somewhere in the fuel line running from the tank to the carburetor. This could be near the tank or closer to the engine, depending on routing.
To find it, you'll need to:
1. Identify your engine: Knowing the engine size (e.g., 283, 327, 350, 427) will help narrow down the possibilities.
2. Consult a repair manual: A shop manual specific to your 1967 Impala's engine will show you a diagram with the fuel system components, including the filter's location.
3. Visually inspect the fuel line: Carefully trace the fuel line from the tank to the carburetor. Look for any canister or inline filter along the way.
Because of the integrated filter possibility, locating the fuel *pump* is your best first step. Once you find that, the filter will either be part of it or a separate unit nearby. Remember to be cautious when working around fuel lines – fuel is flammable.
