I have trouble Starting my car. It will start randomly. Sometime it starts right away and sometime it take 5 minutes of cranking to start it. It might go a week without a problem starting . Then it goes back to have trouble. It does not have CEL. I did check the fuel rail and when I push on the valve gas only dripped out. So I turn the key to the on position and check the valve again nothing came out. So I crank the car for a little while then checked it again and nothing came out. So I am wondering if it could be the fuel pump or filter?

If you hear the fule pump priming under the back seat when you turn the key to the ON position, then you might think about replacing your fuel filter.

I can hear what sound like a motor running coming from under the seat. So it has to be the filter. How hard is it to chance because I am live in an apartment. Is there a trick to it?

change fuel filter:
