Does anyone know where to buy an old style fuel filter? I know the new fuel filter has changed/been upgraded, but was wondering if anyone new a source for the old style filter. My wallet dictating, I didn't want to upgrade the fuel pump, lines, and filter at this time. I'm sure there's some out there!

all i can tell you is the old part number 163-477-02-01 alot of places will sub this number to the new style filter.

The old style filter hasn't been available for over 4 years & you don't really want it anyhow...they were the cause of many fuel related problems!

WHEN the modification is done you will have a better system.

The fuel pump doesn't get replaced on that fuel filter mod.
