Should be up against the filewall, just behind the battery. on your RS, though, I believe everything is opposite. Is your battery on the right side? My battery is on the left side pushed back against the firewall. I have to take that out, and the platform it sits on to get to it. Good luck.

YOu'll need to remove the washer resevoir also to have access to it. Keep in mind, later 2G models (with 420A) had the fuel filter relocated underneat the vehicle in the right rear quarters close to the right rear wheel/ fuel tank.

How hard is it to remove the washer resevoir? .. just a simple unbolt? I never looked at that area when I was out there yesterday. It'll probably be next weekend before I get around to round 2.
