Replacement fuel strainer not the same as factory

Hoff Daddy · Apr 24, 2015

Look the new one I got from O'Reillys is half the size as the factory. It's an import direct strainer, it looks solid and good quality, but it's tiny. It's also a bit shorter. Should I reuse the old one, it's a little dirty and has 200k mi on it, I could clean it though. I'm not really liking what I have to work with here and I can't just let it sit.

If I may ask, what was the issue with the old one? Honesty, I'd just clean it.

Take that one back and get an OEM strainer from Honda.

The pump and strainer was $100 with a lifetime warranty. I can't just take it back and I had to get them both for the warranty, in my eyes it's not a bad deal either. I don't exactly feel like spending more money on an oem one though. I could barely see through the old one if I held it up to a light and only in some spots, so it was pretty dirty and I did not have the time or means to clean it. I kept everything just in case I need to use it in to future but right now the new one is in it with no problems and a few hundred miles on it now.
