Do you need to torque oil pan bolts?
Engine oil pan bolts range in torque from seven foot-pounds to 22 ft-lb or more for large engines with heavier pans and bolts. Once you've torqued the bolts and filled the engine with oil, you should run the engine for five minutes to bring it up to normal operating temperature.
This make, year and model has no inline fuel filter, the only fuel filtering is done at the inlet to the electric fuel pump inside the fuel tank, it never needs to be serviced unless the fuel pump is replaced.
Its the same for both types of Equinox.
The short story: the fuel filter is an integral part of the fuel pump, and 06 Equinox has 2 fuel pumps (each presumably with its own filter), due to the odd shape of its fuel tank.
Note: the last time I thought I had a car whose owner thought it was a fuel pump/fuel strainer/fuel filter promplem turned out to have a bad spark plug wire - it caused identical symptoms (engine missing alot, especially going uphill).
that dosent sound like a bad fuel filter to me id try having your tires balanced the fuel filter is located in the tank and usually does not require any service. the tires could be out of round or just out of balance.
