I am looking for a fuel pickup filter for a 1985 GSL-SE. Has anyone found a workable solution?

 

I know it's a specific size to fit into the lower well in the tank, but there must be a generic can-type fuel filter that will work. Wanted to be sure you're not talking about the big fuel filter after the pump.

 

Yes, I am referring to the filter in the tank. I’m sure there is a filter that will slip on the end of the pickup tube and also fit inside the well. When I find a one that fits I will post the part number. I was hoping to avoid having to open every filter box at the parts store.

 

Following because mine has a rip. I added a inline filter before the fuel pump

 

this is what i used

i think painting the tube with the stuff they use to line gas tanks would be better if you had a tiny amount of it.

 

I don't see the part number for that fuel strainer in that thread

 

Reread the thread,there is a link to part #

 

It's in the BTW section towards the bottom. Doesn't really look like a link, but it is.

 

My bad. Blind as a bat as a approach 30

 

30? see what happens when yer twice that age,lol.
