1994 Buick Skylark Fuel Filter
My Skylark won't start. It will crank, but not catch and start. A friend told me it sounded like the fuel filter was clogged or something similar to that. Where is the fuel filter located on that year and model so I can remove it and replace it? THANKS

It's under the car. Follow the fuel line out from the gas tank and you should be able to locate it. Some websites state that it's on the driver's side and other say the passenger side.
It's a good idea to relieve the fuel pressure before removing the filter. Remove the fuel pump relay and crank the engine a few times. That should relieve most of the pressure so it doesn't spray you with fuel when you unscrew it.
Here's what your fuel filter looks like.
