I'm in the process of doing a full tune up on my car, and want to change the fuel filter, but am unsure of which engine I should order for.
The engine is a 93 3sgte, but since the fuel filter is not attached to the engine (such as cap/rotor/wires etc) do I still need to order a 3sgte fuel filter? Only looking to change the in-line filter for now. |

I don't know if you can use the 3sgte fuel filter unless the fittings to the filter are the same as the 5sfe. If your lines are still 5sfe, I will just use the 5sfe fuel filter.

So I called up 2 dealers today, and they both said that the filter is a non-service part. As in they didn't have a p/n. I even specifically stated I was looking for the inline filter, located in the engine bay, not in the fuel tank and it was no help...
I haven't been able to find it on any of my usual part websites either, so can someone throw a p/n for a 5sfe engine up? Ugh, nvm about the p/n. I was being blond, and did not notice I was searching in the collision drilldown... This post has been edited by 6gsillyca: Apr 22, 2008 - 12:13 AM |
