You could do it, however the logic behind having the filter in the tank (I
think) is that you filter the fuel before it goes into the highly sensitive
pump. On many vehicles, for example firebirds and camaros, the pump will
pretty much die if you run out of gas even once due to the fuel contaminents
reaching the pump.
It seems to me that Chrysler might think up a better access system for it.
The saturns (at least the one my friend has) have access ports to the duel
pump from under the back seat so you don't have to remove the tank to service
it. I know the pickup bodystyle doesn't lend itself as easily to such an
access port, but I have to imagine it could be done, just not cost
effectively for the manufacturer.
