The fuel filter in a 2009 Honda CR-V is located at the top of the fuel tank, along with the fuel sending unit. To access this component, you can go under the rear seats of your SUV and find it under a circular plastic cover on top of the tank. Its main purpose is to purify the fuel before it flows into your fuel lines and rails. It's crucial because any particles could obstruct the lines or harm your engine if they manage to pass through the injectors. If you observe lower than usual fuel pressure, it's advisable to inspect the filter. A clogged filter can limit the fuel flow into the lines, leading to decreased pressure.
