fuel filter

is there a filter to replace the factory filter? thr drain is worn out on mine and leaks. i think i have seen filters with the drain built into the bottom, not a separate unit like the origional.

You might want to try a Wix 33417. What you have now is a 33217. The difference is no water in fuel sensor. It does have a drain. The Wix website has pictures. I'm sure the Wix numbers will cross to whatever you prefer. Don
