When I try to start the car the engine rotates but does not start.
-Fuel tank is full
-Battery is fine
-Battery terminal connections are fine
-Fuel injectors, fuel pump, pressure regulator are all fine
-timeing belt is in good condition
-ignition components are dry and operational
-spark plugs are fine
-starting circuit wiring is fine
-distributor/ignition timing is fine
-ignition coil is fine
It has 75000 miles and has not been driven for about a week and has been sitting with a very small amount of fuel in it. I am told that because of it's age and mileage that dirt and such could have clogged the fuel filter which has not been changed since the purchase of the car (I believe the manual instructs to replace it every 30000 miles). My Corolla 93-97 manual says that the "canister filter is mounted in a bracket on the firewall near the brake master cylinder". I was able to locate the brake master cylinder but not the fuel filter. Before I take it to a mechanic I want to attempt to replace this myself if it is easily accesible.
Would anyone happen to know exactly where the fuel filter is located?
Thanks,
Aleksey
