Just for reference if anyone searches, sometimes you have to reuse the old clips with the new filter, so no ripping/cutting/tearing them if you can help it. I replaced mine with a Wix and had to reuse the old clips.

Geez. Every two years - rain, snow, ****, or mud. At least.

And mine's RENIX, so I use regular hose clamps to stick the filter on (until I get around to that -5AN or -6AN retrofit I've been wanting to do...)

Yeah, I'm positive this thread has pushed me over the edge to doing mine when I get it back. Who knows the last the PO did this, if ever! 176k and counting.

GrandJC78, did you happen to run your had on the inside of the tank? There was a TSB on 96 tanks. Seems over time the inside turns to a gell that would clog up the FP's.
