Phil,
I think your concerns are quite valid. They are
now my concerns too. One of the attractive things about a modern replacement, was guaranteed reliability & ability to buy filter body with a glass bowl to see the quality, or potential sediment in fuel.
Grant,
I see the Jeep parts place has those filters considerably cheaper! I like cheaper.

Don't suppose the fuel senders would fit CMP too? They're not a bad price either.
Scott,
That filter you bought looks to be a perfect match for replacing my old (& buggered) one!

I got a little sidetracked today. Hadn't intended to work on the vacuum booster right now, but did some cleaning work on a couple of the parts, including frame bracket and vacuum intake filter assembly. Breather still had the original filter element inside too. Yuck! I'll make a suitable foam one to replace it.

Didn't get those parts painted but did get the first of the fuel tanks finished. Stenciling will get done next weekend, unless I get inspired to do it sooner.

Also painted all the brake mechanism for master & booster. Can't see me waiting to next weekend to put this back together, so I guess it will get done some time through the week, when the television watching is particularly poor. That could be any night!
Cont'd...
