- I can't help you find the filter, but when I changed the one in my
- '89 Probe all I did was trip the shock switch on the electric fuel
- pump with the engine running and waited until the engine stopped.
-
- I imagine most fuel injected engines run about 30-40 lbs pressure
- so the same technique should work on your Justy. If your fuel
- pump doesn't have the shock trip, look for the fuse and pull it.
