1997 jeep wrangler fuel filter

[luis]

Does this jeep have a fuel filter or does the fuel magically clean itself?

I asked the autoparts store and they say its not serviceable or could I purchase a new one

So its part of the whole fuel pump assembly?

I believe that the wrangler fuel filter is really just a wire mesh screen. It's in the tank (part of the pump), and is designed to be replaced when the fuel pump dies.

That don't sound like it would catch to much dirt or anything else bad in the tank

[luis]

Which is why our Jeep has a new fuel filter. It's a big sock-type thing, supposed to last for the life of the vehicle or the life of the fuel pump, whichever comes first.

Wow. I put two old school ones on my Jeep when I fixed the linkage the day after I brought it home
