if someone could answer these quick questions it would be appreciated:

1 - where is the fuel filter

2 - is there a MAF sensor, and if so where can it be found?

i'm asking this on behalf of a friend, and am miles from his car, so can't find them for him.

cheers.

"what is a MAF sensor? "

it is a device that measures the air flow rate to the engine, which i assume this car will have, as I understand it is an open loop fuel injection system.

You mean the airflow meter. This is an integral part of the fuel injection system and comprises a plunger next to the fuel metering unit. This a mechanical device and is not an electrical sensor.

the 16V uses mechanical K-Jet fuel injection. It uses some sort of a flap to measure air intake, just passed the air filter.
