I've wanted to do that on my last two D-Maxes, trouble is I always remember it about the time I'm staring at the plug starting to pull it for a change.

mga60t, here’s that tutorial link:

Fuel filter write up

We were discussing the different methods used by some for gaining access to the Fuel Filter last night while I was changing mine. I explained how in this nice tutorial, it states to remove the filter between the battery tray and the A/C lines.


Of course to do this you must remove the battery. As you can see, the battery tray is notched back for the necessary room.

I then tried to insert a new filter between the A/C lines and the intercooler tube and it just won’t fit, regardless of the size of hands.



I don’t know how ya’ll do it this way.



I gave up on draining the filter and inserted a funnel below to a drain pan to pour into instead.



Instead of the WIF sensor wrench, I've always just used my King size Channel-Locks without damage.
