I'm a 5.0 guy and need some help. My daughter owns a 1997 4.6 GT and needs the fuel filter changed as well as the PCV valve. First off, I can't seem to find the PCV valve so can someone direct me where to look. Secondly, is there anything special about putting in the new fuel filter or do you just pull off the hoses at each end and put on the new one. Thanks for the help...............

PCV Valce is in the top of the passenger side valve cover. To change the fuel filter you will need removal tools to remove the lines. They cost about $3 and they are also for A/C lines.

On my 96 I didn't need a removal tool. I don't know if they changed it in 97 though. There was a clip on each side. I pulled them out, removed the hose, and put the new filter in. The filter came with new clips and I put those in. Done!

So can I just pull the hoses off or do I need to depressurize the fuel system?
