Re: [Chrysler300] Fuel Filter Available

["Dave Schwandt" <finsruskw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I did some more digging on this and basically came up with a dead end.
The NAPA guy said the Federal Mogul number crossed over to a NAPA number 
that was a paper filter/metal  unit that appeared to fit in a canister of 
some sort.

The Number that I previously posted does not compute with the NAPA Cross 
reference book (circa 1985) that I have and the NAPA guy couldn't do 
anything with it either.

The 55-58 parts book I have is confusing at the least as it lists numerous 
filters, packages, pieces  and parts that are hard to pin down to specific 
cars.

Best bet would be to actually eyeball an NOS  (fat chance!!)  filter package 
in original box w/part number to get to the bottom of this.

Hope I haven't clouded the topic even further!!
