where to buy oil pick up tube

[hanbui]

I have a 2002 SAAB 9-5 wagon and need to replace the oil pick-up tube/screen. Where can I order the part. The dealer said there is a very long wait on the part.

Thanks for your help .

what is wrong with the one currently on the car? sludged up, clogged? either scenario you can clean and free it up by using alcohol or parts cleaner.

There are a number of ways to take care of the pickup. If it is still usable but needing cleaned up I use a 25% mixture of PineSol, the Pinesol being the old formula with the pine oil, to 75% water soaked over night. I also used a soft copper wire brush purchased from Harbor freight. Here are some picts of before, after and products used:
