I tried to find the little gas filter that goes in the vacuum line from the UIM to the MAP sensor. I looked at all the related parts diagrams and can't find it anywhere. My contact at Mazda keeps faxing me sheets with what he thinks I'm looking for. Does anyone know the part number? I did a search here, but the words 'gas' and 'filter' bring up just about every thread out there...

 

Call Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda in Virginia.

I did....it's S5A1-18-744. I got one on order.

Thanks SLOASFK!

 

No problem.

Put his number on speed dial. He's very knowledgeable about these cars(contrary to most dealership employees) and he stocks parts and ships fast and free. For OEM parts, there's hardly anyone better.

 

He has to be. Ray owns 2 FD's

I have one and believe me I spent over an hour looking for it. It drove me nuts, but it was also late and after a long day at work. The image is from a different angle and easy to miss. Once I got the part number, I went back to see why I missed it. It's on page 1-H 5 and the part number reference is 18-744

Thanks for great recommendations! My parts guy at Mazda is very knowledgeable and kicked himself too.....Sounds like he needs to get himself an FD....if not 2

 

Yeah, I'll admit finding parts in those things is anything but easy...
