believe it or not on this kia the filter is in your fuel tank.
ase techDoes anyone know where to find and how to change the fuel filter on a 02 kia rio?I MAY NOT FAMILIAR W/ THIS CAR,BUT MY GUESS IS THAT THERE IS NO SERVICEABLE FILTER ON THIS CAR.THE ONLY FILTER MAY BE INSIDE THE TANK,WHICH CAN ONLY BE REPLACED W/ THE PUMP.THE BEST BET IS CALL A DEALER AND ASK THEM FOR THE FUEL FILTER IF THEY SAY NO THAT MEANS IT'S ALL IN THE TANK.AND IF THEY HAVE A LISTING FOR IT ASK THEM WHERE IS TI LOCATED.Does anyone know where to find and how to change the fuel filter on a 02 kia rio?Its in the rear of the car close to the tire. It is round and silver. it might have a holder attached to it to the frame that u have to take off. Follow the rubber line from the tank to the front. I believe its on the divers side,but could be wrong.
