where is the fuel filter?

I have a 95 SC400 and I want to change the fuel filter...where is it?

I searched but all the results I got for 'fuel filter' was just someone mentionin it in their list of things to do - not where it is.

If it's like the SC300, Then the fuel filter should be near the rear tire on the driver's side.

you do not need to remove anything to get to the fuel filter. But it would be best to replace it while it is on a lift because it is held on really tight by the nuts on the lines.
