Go to NAPA with your old filter and they should be able to help.

Thanks for the reply

NAPA was the most helpful.

I have a filter that is oversized so it does not fit in hanger.

Need proper filter.

Also not sure why it has 5 1//6 from pump to filter

It's possible it's not the right pump for your jeep, maybe it's been replaced with something else that worked. That's the problem with used vehicles, anything goes. My buddy has a '90 Chevy truck that has a Summit racing fuel pump plumbed into the fuel line because the in-tank pump quit.

That's about my best conclusion as well.

Looking for a brass barb fitting 5/16 to 3/8. I'll splice the poly and put the Right filter on it.

This 12.00 fuel filter change has cost almost 100.00
