do you have an autozone, advanced auto or Napa near you? Napa would be preferable as they don't sell crap. just go in and ask them

 

Autozone and Advanced Auto are about 12 miles away, kinda hard to get there with a jeep thats not legal lol.. I didnt even think about those stores cause I never go there. Walmart is about 8 miles from my house, on the opposite side of town as the auto stores... I will have to have my girlfriend take me there when I get some money..

 

Dang dude. thats a hike. I'm pretty sure with Autozone and Advanced offer shipping on most small stuff like fuel filters

 

ZachsXJ, yeah, after looking at this ..it may be a good idea to pull and check what's up with the pump.
Now, how about a photo of the inside of a gas tank? That may be a pretty view out there....

As for what brand filter to pick. Good question. I personally have no clue.. Maybe somebody has some input on that.
Buy on-line if there's no store in your area. I personally like to go and pick the part , as I usually have no patience to wait.
I went to NAPA. They had two to choose from a "SelectPro" and "Gold" - both got cool names. I've got the Gold one ...just because. It had better glossy paint ..heh heh ... , I only can fantasise, that it must have better paper or something , it must have something better

 

ah cool I was hoping it was the inline filter. I know some vehicles have one inside the stupid tank so you have to run most of the gas out and drop the tank to get to it.

Thanks for the info!

 

lol.. Ill get there eventually, Just gotta get some money around. How much was your filter?

I've dropped the tank out of my XJ before, its not hard. I had about 6 gallons of gas in it at the time. I just dropped it out of the Jeep, and took the gas out once it was out of the Jeep and then just strapped it back up in there.

 

Uh, I bought a new but unused one off a dude for $5. I'm having issues with my Jeep again so I may go and buy a new one, they're only $12

 

Yeah, the Autozone link said 12.99, thats not bad..

 

I just checked napa's website there are 2 different options one is like 10$ and the "gold" is 15

 

Personally I trust Napa and would go with them and buy the "Gold" filter. Worst case its just the same as a regular filter and you spent $5 extra for nothing, but most likely its a better filter.

 

Thanks for the thread on the filter. I am getting mine done as soon as possible too.

 

hmm looks like you've started something. I am going to do mine too. Inexpensive part to replace and its nice to have peace of mine knowing its new.

 

Yeah man, they're cheap and easy to replace. shouldn't take but 15 minutes to do.

 

If my driveway EVER dries out Ill get mine done, along with the dist cap lol.
