Toyota camry sportivo 2007 fuel filter replacement need some info

[sportivo2007]

My car is due for a fuel filter change so i went to Toyota and purchased the filter, i told him i wanted the complete unit including the bottom filler ,but they never give you the right part unless you go twice loll

does anyone know what the part number is for the bottom filter that connects the the fuel pump ?

see the pictures below

OLD

NEW

Part number for the fuel filter is 77024-8Y002

23220-0H070 is the fuel pump with the sock (filter)

don't think you can just change the sock only.

Thanks for the info ,i went to Toyota today and that's what they also told me ,its $677

Toyota said it comes with the fuel pump ? that's a joke am not changing my fuel pump just for a small filter i just need the bottom filter strainer

anyone tried to clean it or do it another way ? there must be an alternative ?

can you take a picture of the strainer/sock, especially where it mates to the bottom of thr pump?

alternatively you can buy GOSS pump from SCA/Repco etc. this pump comes with the sock filter. way cheaper, for my 2004 camry it's only $90.

your a legend mate thanks heaps for that ,i will go and order the pump tomorrow with that part number !

OK so i went to super cheap and they want 200 for the pump ,so i just decided to give it a good clean with lots of decreaser,

it turns out you can remove the bottom filler which is weird that you cant buy it separate from Toyota

that is how dirty it was before cleaning

after cleaning it all the dirt came out

all ready to go in

the mess

How much km do you have in your camry? That seems to be alot of dirt. Didnt know fuel could be that dirty.

What did you use to clean and how did you clean the dirt off?

My carmy is done 150,000 kms now ,that's what i thought too it is alot ,and i been only using shell and BP fuel

i cleaned it with super cheap decreaser spray it on leave it for 5 min and then rub it with your fingers ,and do it over again till there is no more dirt ,then i washed it with hot water, and just dry it with a blow dryer
