CuttySup Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 Where is it? Is it underneath by the gas tank or under the hood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfewtrail Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 Underneath, just ahead of the gas tank on the drivers side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfewtrail Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 You're welcome. I also found this picture just in case anyone else hasn't seen/changed their filter before and wants to know what it looks like. The car is a Grand Prix(not that it makes a difference)..snagged the pic from an old ebay auction or somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z34_nut Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 i can't help but notice how clean the GP is! :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfewtrail Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 i can't help but notice how clean the GP is! :shock: I was thinking someone would say that, I think it was a low mileage car(thinking under 30K). I should get some pictures of my undercarriages next time I steamclean the cars/have them on a lift. Being in the south = rust free/clean. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bossman429 Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 I noticed when I did my fuel filter that the TGP's have braided stainless steel fuel line from the pump to the filter. Where regular W's have rubber line. I just thought it was odd/interesting. According to my computer at work (we have Carquest on a permanent connection) the fuel pump for the TGP is the same as the fuel pump on a V6 GP. I have read that the TGP's used a Corvette fuel pump, however, from what I've seen, all V6 W's use the same pump as a Vette. Could be that they're wrong, GM might say something different. Might be a little off topic, but I couldn't stop talking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure the TGP/TSTE does in fact have the corvette pump and the NA 3.1's have a different pump(they might all use the same part # now though when you go to buy a new one). I seem to remember looking the pump up at onc point and the OEM Corvette pump # matched the TGP #, but the NA listed a different pump.

99RegalGS Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 My Cutlass has the Braided SS line also, vs my Regal has rubber. But my Cutlass has theaded ends on both sides of the fuel filter vs. my Regal has the quick disconnect on one side and the threads on the other. Might have to do with that change.

mfewtrail Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 The TGP fuel pump is AC Delco EP375, NA 3.1 is EP378....both list for $69.99 at autozone. EDIT: for a typo, also the 5.7 liter Vette from 1990 also lists the EP375(the regular vette, the ZR1 probably had a different/higher flow pump).
