Filtration and Fitment Details
Airtex FS126 is engineered as a fuel pump strainer for the fuel tank side of the system, where it helps capture debris before it reaches the pump. The 180.3 mm length and 53.3 mm width reflect a specific application design, while the 11.0 mm inside diameter fitting and push-on attachment support proper installation on the intended pump setup. This part cross-references Spectra Premium STR36 for the same application.

- Restricted fuel flow caused by a clogged strainer
- Premature wear on the fuel pump from abrasive particles

Installation Notes
Install FS126 on the fuel pump inlet using the correct push-on connection for the specified pump diameter. Confirm the application matches the vehicle and pump configuration before installation, since this is a specific-fit part. A new strainer is required to validate the warranty.
