RX7 1984 Fuel pre-filter

Does anyone know where I can get the fuel pre-filter that sits inside the fuel tank?

I've searched everywhere but there's only fuel filters and pumps.

I went to the parts store and picked through what they had til I found one that fit the tube. It won't be like the stock piece. It'll be like a sock.

thanks for the name guys!



is it possible to make a cheap version of it? or is it interchangeable from another tank?


not sure how bad it is to not have it at all or to have a crappily made one.

Take your pickup to the parts store and get one that fits. Failure to do so will bite you in the ***. When you least expect it.
