  Q: How to replace the fuel filter in a Toyota Supra?

  A: The fuel filter is located near the starter motor (early models) or near the fuel tank (late models) and is most easily accessible with the vehicle raised on a hoist or supported on jackstands. The lines are attached to the fuel filter with banjo bolts - be sure to install new copper washers. On late models, the fuel filter is located at the rear of the vehicle next to the fuel tank. Since the vehicle is equipped with fuel injection, it is important to relieve the fuel pressure before disconnecting any fuel lines. Place a pan under the fuel filter to catch any spilled gasoline, then remove the banjo fitting bolts or flare-nut(s) from both ends of the filter. Discard the copper washers - new ones are packaged with the new fuel filter. Remove the mounting bolts and detach the filter. Hold the new filter in position and install the bolts. Be sure the filter is correctly oriented; the end marked IN must face toward the fuel tank. Make sure the lines are positioned between the tangs, then install the bolts and NEW washers or thread in the flare-nuts. Tighten the bolts/nuts securely, then start the engine and check carefully for leaks at the fuel line connections. If the connections are leaking, tighten the bolts/nuts slightly to eliminate the problem.
