What It Helps Address

• Fuel system contamination from rust, sediment, and debris

• Replacement needs during fuel pump service on Hyundai Scoupe, Hyundai Excel, and Mitsubishi Precis models

Installation Notes and Tips

Install the strainer on the fuel pump pickup using the push-on attachment point and verify the 22.0 mm fitting inside diameter before assembly. Because this is an internal fuel system component, confirm the vehicle application by year and model before installation. Airtex notes that a new strainer is required to validate the warranty, so replace the strainer whenever servicing the fuel pump.

Quality Assurance

Airtex gradient density fuel pump strainers are built to provide reliable filtration at the pickup point and support longer service life for the fuel pump and fuel system. Airtex FS151 is intended for specific-fit applications and is backed by the manufacturer’s requirement that a new strainer be used to validate the warranty.
