jorgen Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Hi, How often I have to change fuel filter or pump. On my previous forester fuel filter was on the front, but now I think it is in the tank. I do check on eBay an I find fuel pump kit or just strainer (I think it is filter?)

Jay762 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Think for your year they are in tank, part of the pump / pickup system, seem to remember something about replacement every 60k but that might be my Impreza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr B Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Tea bag type thing is the fuel screen/strainer, the filter is above the pump (zinc plated with white plastic top) http://www.carid.com/2008-subaru-forester-fuel-delivery-parts/item-8825811.html You can actually remove it & bridge gap with fuel pipe & add the older engine bay fuel filter to the fuel line in engine bay. Was/is a popular mod for people in locations with less than great pump stations/fuel as could change filters more regularly & at a fraction of effort & cost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
