Fram's website has two fuel filters that will supposedly fit.
Which one will fit the best?

G6827 - 3.34" Outside diameter; 4.38" Long; 5/16" Tube connector

or

G7367 - 2.56" Outside diameter; 4.72" Long; 9.5mm Tube connector

This is just my personal opinion but I would not use a Fram filter even if it was given to me free.

It's so fashionable to badmouth Fram. My Forester is doing fine after almost 170k miles with Fram, Walmart, and occasional other house brands.

Your fuel line hoses are 5/16". :wink:

+1, I have personal experience with Fram not building a filter (oil) to spec. Weak valve in oil filter for a maxima that allowed oil to drain completely if the engine sat long enough. Ever hear the sound of a motor starting with no oil in it? I've stuck to OEM from then on for filters, not worth the risk.

+1 I wouldn't touch any fram product if someone paid me. Their quality control is -severely- lacking on their own branded products. They're the only brand I absolutely will not consider putting on my car.

I like purolator filters usually (except the latest revision of their air filters). Pepboys carries them and they're generally well priced.

I generally don't buy oem filters (aside from the AT filter) as the local parts department is pretty terrible.

I prefer WIX oil filters!!!!

Replacing my old filter, I found it to be a carquest part. :icon_frown:.
Replaced with Subaru filter...:biggrin:

Ive heard of people checking their fuel filter for water or dirt....
How do u do this other than cut or smash it open?
