Fuel pump breather "filter"...
Posted by D-train On 2013/7/22 23:32:01
Hi,
I am currently rebuilding my fuel pump (23rd super) when I pulled out the "sisle" (I think that it is called) in the vacuum vent port because there was not much left. So I needed to replace it with something. Not having any filtering foam, and fiberglass insulation seemed too thin, I cut a piece of red Scotchbrite and slid it in. Now I'm second-guessing myself. Should I be concerned about the abrasive coming off of it? I figured steel wool would rust. ...but I could hunt down some brass brillow pads and use that. Any thought?
Thanks,
Mark
