I have a 2001 90 HP Ficht Evinrude engine and I would like to change the fuel filter on it. I can't seem to find it though. I can see it on the parts list but not on the engine itself. Can anyone direct me to the location of it.

Re: Fuel filter

If you can't see it on the outside of the motor it may be under the air box cover.

Re: Fuel filter

follow the fuel line coming in, I believe it looks like a small oil filter.

I haven't had a chance to get back to it. Had to go out of town and won't be able to get to it until later this week. I will let you know.

Thanks boobie. That was exactly where it was at. It looks like a small oil filter. I assume it just screws off like an oil filter.

Thanks again.
