Oh boy, I think the one I got was beveled.. I remember there being a slight bump feel to it.. I'll pull it off and double check, although, I haven't noticed any fuel leaking though..

Every motorcraft one I got was beveled. I used my square cut oring for 11 years with no leaks and numerous different filters.

Just double checked mine, it was beveled, didn't see a sign of leaking though. on the topic of fuel filter woes, I have no idea the last time this was replaced. put a new on on tonight, it was a bit more snug than what was in there, but maybe because it was brand new. Either way, check this mother out.



Maybe I'll start getting better fuel flow..

How long since you replaced until it got that bad?
I'm not entirely too sure when it was last replaced.. probably one of the first things I should have got, but it didn't look that bad when I got it.
