Fuel Filter Question
Today I purchased a Fuel filter from my local dealer AC Delco part # GF652 is the part that was sold to me.
I noticed that the part # for an AC Delco on Ecklers and Mid America web site is GF481 for my 93 vette. I went on the AC Delco web site and they only list the GF652 Filter. Does anyone know why the numbers are different?

I would relay that info to your dealer.Tell him to recheck that P/N to be sure.

I called the dealer up today to see if he gives me the same part # GF652 and he did. Perhaps GF652 replaced the GF481?

I'm pretty sure it's just a superceded part #. GF 652 is correct and fits most C4s

my '85 uses a different part # that the 652. I threw away the box though but I think it was like 480 or something.

AC Delco part # GF652 is the correct fuel filter part #......
It fit's All C4's with the exception of a 1984 model.

Kind of like oil filters, GM is superceding parts numbers frequently.

AC Delco updates some of their part numbers just like GM does with theirs. The GF481 number has been superceded.
I have a spare fuel filter sitting in my parts cabinet that I bought about 5 years ago and it's a GF481. It looks identical to the GF652 filter.
