Use the OEM sock. If you use the Walbro, you will have problems with your gas gauge like I do. It only drops to 1/4 tank, then stops, so you will never know how much gas you actually have below that 1/4 mark.

 

does anyone have any advice on how to get the clip off that holds the fuel filter to the bottom of the pump? just pry with a screwdriver? i dont want to break it. thanks

 

Exactly. I figured this out the hard way.

re use OEM everything! Just swap the pumps

 

If you're referring to the itty bitty round clip thingy that goes over that little post, just use a small screwdriver and slowly walk around it while lightly prying it up as you go. Then, just use a small, like 4 or 5mm long socket to push the new or old clip onto the new pump once you have the filter on. The new filter should have one of these itty bitty clips with it but if it doesnt, just reuse the old one from the stock pump filter.

 

lots of good info here -- thanks everyone

 

i started to rip my trunk apart to see what ill be looking at this weekend when i do my instal. i noticed a unused plug cominh from the same wire harness as trhe fuel pump power and was mounted and just sitting there right where the pump is mounted into the tank. dpoes anybody know what this extra wire harness clip is for? cd changer?

 

Thats probably for the OEM twin pumps you could have ordered. LOL jk

I'm sure its for the CD changer or something but I'm not too sure.

 

Another one here that says, OEM filter.
