Fuel filter socks
Hi all, I recently brought back a fuel pump assembly from the US containing the anti surge tupperware box.
I lifted my stock assembly out today which is fitted with an swrd 225 lph pump and the (very small) sock is fitted "in line" with the pump meaning my tupperware won't fit!
From looking at pictures it seems the spec-c/usdm socks are attached to the pumps with with a 9th degrees elbow so the box will fit.
Does anybody know if a warlbro/other brand pump would be more suitable or is no aftermarket socks are available?
I'll post pics tomorrow to hopefully make this thread make more sense...

Thanks Maydew, but I don't think so. I think I need the sock to come from the pump on a closer to 90degrees angle.
Thanks Athame1, any chance of a photo before wasting your time?
I did find the following, which comes with a 90degrees elbow - but I need to verify whether it'll fit the SWRD pumps!

Athame that looks more like the right shape!
Would you PM me your PayPal and however much it is you want for it? I know I'd rather an Oem one but until I find one this will hopefully suit the interim.

Bumpppp
Guys I'm in desperate need of help, I bought a new 340 fuel pump for the spec c the sock supplied fits the fuel pump but is not the right shape / size etc .... I wanted to fit the standard oe sock but it's slightly loose where it fits to the pump
I've had all weekend to think this through and the only thing I could come up with was to put a small sleeve of heat shrink round the pump entry But I've just spoken to the company that supply's the fuel resistant heat shrink and they don't recommend it been submerged in fuel so I'm stuck !!!
Any thoughts or comments at this stage would be great as I'm well and truly stuck
