Need to know the procedure for changing the fuel filters on my '03 V6. Is their just the one going to the injector rail, or is their one inside or outside the tank area as well?

They say it's a "lifetime" filter,I don't buy it since I change mine every 30k and the inside is black as coal(I don't buy cheap gas either).

How big a deal is it to change it out?

the access hatch is pretty easy to work with, it's under the cargo area carpeting

must have been something they added in early 03, or .. just one of those unfortunate hit and miss things

it's easy enough to check for though
