Where is the Fuel Filter located?

Hi, guys I own an Canadian Acura EL 1.7L, aka Civic.

Just wondering where is the Fuel Filter. What happen is the other week, my engine light came on. I found out that the fuel pump under the seat is lose, and the fuel overflowed and when to the ground. I don't know how long it was like this.. But I am afraid some dirt may enter my tank.

I looked it up, a filter is only cost $29.... but I can't found the filter anywhere in the car.

Thanks for the help.

the filter is in the tank. it is attached to the fuel pump assembly. you need to remove the pump and remove it from the filter to replace it

its kind of pain to get to but its not hard, you have to remove your rear seats and the assembly comes out that way.
