hope this is in the right forum. I am trying to get a grasp on what I need to order to replace the fuel filter. I am getting confused from the other forums I have found. So do I have this correct? there is an in-tank fuel filter? i think it might be this one? http://www.mitsubishiparts.net/cart/?pn=MB129895

also.. is what looks like a filter on the bottom middle of the car actually what many are referrng to as a sock? and can i replace this? where do i get this part online?

THANKS

 

there's a sock that acts as a filter on the intake line, but the actual fuel filter is made inside the pump. to replace the filter, you have to replace the entire pump. i did some searching on here, and there are threads about this.

 

ok maybe this is what is confusing me most. on lancershop.. http://www.lancershop.com/customer/p...cat=151&page=1

i cant just buy this huh?

 

If you just need the filter get the kit without the pump.
Is the pump a walbro 255?

its stock fuel pump

 

While your in there you might as well upgrade the pump.

seems like a good idea to me. good price too! one question. running the walbro 255.. will i need to get my tuner to send me a reflash if i installed this? thanks

 

The sock is the only serviceable part, if you want to call it serviceable.

And like ak47po said why not upgrade while you are in there

Yes retune.

 

Murph, do you know where I can get that sock online? I want to go ahead and change it out too! thanks

 

ok walbro 255 fuel pump it is!

 

The sock is the filter.It looks like a sock.

 

ok confused again. i will get the walbro and that will be a nice upgrade plus fix my fuel related problem. there is that sock under the car in the middle too. where can i order that? is that also on lancershop? sorry for all the questions.

There is another filter in the other side of the tank. Weather or not it is serviceable, I don't know.
