Fuel Guage Sending Unit Sock

Short answer: The fuel-gauge “sock” (filter) is a simple slip fit — it slides over the end of the pickup tube and has a built-in ring at the open end. The old one’s retaining ring comes off easily, and installation is just slipping the new sock on.

A missing or torn sock means little filtration is happening — check for sock remnants in the tank while you’re in there.
