Do you know what the AC Delco TS number is for the original long sock with the hole in the end?

While the ts3 fits and works, it’s not technically correct. The end seams on the original are rotated 90 degrees from each other and the far end has a hole to go over a pin on the housing.

Gents,

Has anyone upgraded the pumps to the Racetronix (Walbro) 255? Higher flowrate I believe and good quality.

New ACDelco fuel pump/sending unit got here today. Long sock is torn at the bottom heat fusion joint! Guess I'll try to get a replacement, or maybe I can get them t send me a new long sock/strainer? No guarantee that the replacement won't be torn too..same type as in the pic from spork2367 above.

Jerry,

This is the exact problem I just encountered with a new unit. If I can't get a proper replacement, I'm tempted to reuse the sock from the one I just repaired..

I can’t find the correct long one anywhere. The place you bought it from is just a middle man warehouse, they won’t be any help. The TS3 is close dimensionally. If the old one isn’t brittle I’d just use that.

You could try heating up two pieces of metal and melting the end back together further back.
