i got a 71 plymouth satellite sebring plus and i cant find where the fuel filter is on this thing does anyone know??

My dad use to have one and it was in the frame rail right about in the middle of the car but I'm not positive.

Many older vehicles had it screwed directly into the carbuetor, right where the fuel line attaches to the intake for the float bowls. Maybe its hidden there? Can't say for certain. Sorry, I'm no expert on old cars...

 

[89blaster89]

ok ill look in those places, thanks for the help guys

Yeah on those older cars people could have moved them anywhere , I would check the whole thing under and over if it were my car , But i can spend time after i start looking haha

Not Far at all to be honest , my dad basically gave it to me at 15 , i started fixing it up for dd use , and after a bunch of time and money i parked it after 6 months of driving , the float on carb had issues , would stick high and low sometimes , so would flood or not get enough gas , and then it having no power steering or brakes it became dangerous to drive haha

No way , My dad bought this in 1993 after my grandma passed , she left him $1500 , he waited to find a 1953 the year he was born and the first year of the F-100 series , And bought this , It was in okay shape back then and then it sat from 1994 until 2000 , then from then until 03 when i Really started working on it , Did a bunch of work , replaced fuel tank with poly tank
