where to buy: walbro filter and oring?

my fuel pressure is not going up under boost, thats the cause of my going lean issue.

So...


I have already changed the fpr to a known good one and the fuel pressure is still not going up under boost. Base is set to 40psi, it idle the vaccume pulls it down to 32 or so if i remember correctly.

When i rev the car in neutral i can get 7psi... so that means i should see 47psi of fuel pressure when i do. Well when i rev the car and i make make 0 vaccume it goes to base pressure and then as i make boost the fuel pressure actually falls off a few psi.

I have replaced the fuel pump recently thinking it was the cause of the going lean problem, also rewired it. Well i didnt change the sock on the pump, i reused the old one. I also didnt check the o-ring thats seals it.

I want to replace the sock and o-ring.... where would i buy them new?

please help asap. Im going away to college on jan 6th and would love to be able to boost again before i leave. The car is not going and it will be months before i come back.

thanks

wouldn't the o-ring come in any generic set of o-rings from an auto parts store?

i was searching for filter, but the thing is called a strainer.

Advance auto sells them and has them in stock. I found it last night after about 1 hour of searching for fuel pressure related stuff on here.

Thanks for the link anyway.
