Best Answer

The 'strainer' sock that covers the intake tube on the end of the fuel pump.

Inspect the one you have - if it looks bad, has tears or physical wear, it might be a good thing to change while you're there.

A check at one source shows the strainer is only $12... I'd go for it.

Where is the fuel filter on a 200 Geo metro 3 cylinder car?

Are you referring to a 200 model Metro? If so, there is no fuel filter to replace. 1998-2000 Metros have a fuel strainer in the tank. I have a 1999 Metro 3-cylinder and learned this over the summer when contacting the Chevrolet dealer. Are you referring to a 200 model Metro?

My 1998 accord V6 doesn't have a transmission filter.....I know that the 1998 through 2002 generation models are the same, so my guess would be that there isn't one. It does have a strainer inside the transmission that is permanent.
