The pump filters and regulator are all one unit. If you do one you do the whole thing. It is all in the tank so this is why I say to just do the whole thing at once. Filter is non replaceable. You might be able to clean the pickup screen tho, but if you are going to do it that just replace it.

Second: Don't put a foreign plug in a USA motor! Never put a Platinum plug in a non Platinum plug motor as a rule of thumb.

Jason, You were absolutely right about the cause of the erratic low speed idle in my truck. I finally got around to cleaning the IAC this weekend. Took about 15 minutes and completely fixed the problem.

Thank you!
