Radio,

The filter next to the oil dipstick that looks like a regular oil filter (just behind the power steering pump) is the screw-on fuel filter.

The oil filter for these is in the large, round housing at the back on the engine on the drivers side. It's a canister type and doesn't look like a typical oil filter.

Sorry no one answered you, I know how that feels, hope you found your answer already.
