Its not that he didn't know where the fuel filter is, he lied about it. He told mustangman that he needed a new fuel filter and it was rusted. I would like to know how this guy knew that the fuel filter was bad when he didn't even know where the fuel filter is. What pisses me off is when people lie about that kind of stuff. I can understand that someone doesn't know where the fuel filter (or anything else is) because nobody wakes up one day knowing everything there is to know about cars. What does **** me off is when people make it look like they know everything or try to lie to you.

It might take me ten minutes to change my oil.

I agree, My 03 ex IS so easy to work on. Took 20 mins to do both front brakes. And the Oil filter is sitting right under the intake manifold, with a world of room around it to get a Filter wrench in there. The only problem i have with my civic is getting it up on my drive up ramps. I have to use wood boards to keep the front bumper from hitting the ramps.

The thing is with them places is they get alot of customers so they know you and your car.When I talk to a person I one point out something to them Like you may need to watch it or in the future if this happens it may be result of this.Most of the time people are like what you doing with your car or I will be talking about it and there like someone in my Families car is doing the same thing can you fix it.Some how they seem to get past the person designed to do that job.
