This Fuel Filter Replacement from WILLYS CARB (MPN 960004-E) is a drop-in cartridge gas filter element built to refresh an existing 960004-series inline fuel filter housing rather than replace the whole assembly. It targets builders running carbureted and high-output fuel systems who want clean fuel delivery without buying a new filter body every service interval. The element handles gasoline, E85, and alcohol, so it fits a wide range of street, strip, and race setups. When your housing flows fine but the media is loaded with sediment, swapping the cartridge is the quick fix that keeps the carburetor clean.
The element uses a stainless steel mesh media rated at 100 microns, a coarse filtration that traps rust flakes, scale, and large debris while keeping pressure drop low enough for high-volume fuel pumps. Stainless mesh is reusable in many cases, since it can be cleaned with solvent and compressed air and reinstalled rather than discarded like a paper element. Compatibility is built around the 960004 fuel filter housing, so the seal diameter and length match the bowl and cap they were designed for. Because it carries no rubber-sensitive coatings, the media stands up to ethanol and methanol fuels that degrade some paper and cellulose elements over time. Keep a spare on the shelf with your other filter element stock.
Run this cartridge in any build where the 960004 housing already lives in the line, whether that is a weekend cruiser or an alcohol-burning race engine. Pull and inspect the element at every fuel system service, and replace it when the mesh shows damage or no longer cleans up. Pair it with a fresh fuel filter body if your housing is worn, and check the rest of our air and fuel parts for pumps, regulators, and fittings to round out the system. Buying a couple at once means you always have a clean spare ready when the old one comes out.
A 100-micron stainless mesh catches larger contaminants like rust flakes and scale while keeping flow restriction low. It is a coarse filtration suited to high-volume fuel pumps. If your system needs finer cleanup before the carburetor, run an additional finer element downstream rather than relying on this coarse cartridge alone.
Stainless steel mesh elements like this one can often be cleaned with solvent and compressed air, then reinstalled, unlike disposable paper elements. Inspect the mesh after cleaning. If it shows tears, crushing, or debris that will not clear, replace it with a fresh cartridge to protect the fuel system.
Yes. The stainless steel mesh media is compatible with gasoline, E85, and alcohol. It carries no rubber-sensitive coatings, so ethanol and methanol will not degrade it the way they can break down some paper and cellulose elements over time.
It is built as a replacement element for the 960004-series inline fuel filter housing. The seal diameter and length match that bowl and cap. Confirm your existing filter body is the 960004 design before ordering so the cartridge seats and seals correctly.
