Fuel filter woes

[Mikey D]

Howdy folks!

Yeah, I know, a blast from the past. I've not been around for a while but I needed some real info and this is where I go to get it.

Fuel filter is plugged up. 2 years ago I choked when I saw the $218 tag on a new filter so I improvised a back flush device (water bottle full of gas with a fuel line going to the out-put of the filter, squeeze and repeat 25 - 30x) and cleaned out the old one. I got quite the handfull of grunge out, should have weighed it but didn't. It worked great for the last 2 years but alas and alack, the problem is back.

Is there any mod or fix or replacement or sumptin for the 02 fuel filter. I keep gagging on a $200 consumable that doesn't stick me to the asphalt!

Any inexpensive replacements that are worthwhile?

Thanks in advance!

Mikey

I've got one i just pulled out of my rusted tank. It does have some rust residue all over. I was using unaware of the rust in my tank. So, it works. I can send it to you if you just pay for shipping. I don't know what that is maybe a couple dollars. It's off my 01.
