Thanks for the quick reply, L84THSKY. I found a Mahle fuel filter on Auto Doctor for $20.25 before shipping. How difficult is it to change one of these on my own? I'm a noob at car repair/maintenance. I do have some tools and a jack + 2 jack stands. Is this a job that I can handle, perhaps with some help from my more savvy step son? Or should I plan on having this done in a shop.

.:EDIT:.
I found this useful site to help me on my way. But I'm still curious, is this too difficult or risky?
