Have any info on the fuel filter? went to purchase new one and went to three auto stores and none had a replacement with the large outlet side as the original has.
Thanks

When I replace mine I will go with a filter that has the same size as the small side on both sides and rig up a reducer/stepup for the large side. I have no idea why they would have such a large inlet with a smaller outlet. The outlet size will control the flow for the inlet as well.

On mine the larger side is the outlet,it goes to the pump.I thought of the same as you but would have to go back up to the large hose to fit on the pump wouldnt I?
Thanks,

Yup you are correct, just went out and looked. THEN I would get std. fuel filter, replace the hose to the pump and step-up at the pump. Hopefully if the pump has to be replace the replacement would have a more std. size inlet. Have to remember my tank is the the front, not under the seat. My filter is under the center console towards the front. I have to upgrade the filler tube on mine so I have been thinking of replacing with a fuel cell. Then I would run hose all the way to the pump and places the filter just in front of the pump for easier access. Just another someday project!
