2002 Escape fuel filter
The auto store wants $70.00 to replace the fuel filter, I did one years back on a Ford product. Any help on locating which side of the chasis the filter is located. I picked up a new one for $12.00. Hoping to replace this wekend.

WikiAnswers - Where is the fuel filter located on a Ford Escape
WikiAnswers - How do you change a fuel filter on a 2004 Ford Escape Is the fuel system under pressure and is there a way to releive it before removing the fuel lines Are any special tools required
Changing of fuel filter is really simple. Just let car sit on a driveway for a while to release fuel pressure.

You have now relieved the pressure in the lines and can remove the filter.
Just remember, there is no pressure, but the lines will still have fuel in them, so have a couple rags handy.

On my 04, same as your 02, on the passenger side exterior wall under the dash is the inertia cutoff switch. Pull the plastic trim piece off and use a small screwdriver to pop the red button up. I did when it was running... ran for about a minute. Do not attempt to change it with it pressurized. Tried that the first time and it wasn't pretty.
