I have changed the filters since then. But great thinking tho. I'm planning on doing my rear sway links and bushings soon,,, I guess I gotta pencil in a tank flush with it. It looks like a tight squeeze to get the driver side end link with the tank in place. The ole two bird syndrome. Lol

I actually only have about 7 different places that I fuel at. I'm fairly confident it was from running the fuel low cause I don't, and haven't had any drive ability issues. I ran it low,, 32 miles to mty,,,, that's waaaay low for me. I haven't had it that low for prob 6 months. That's prob 120k mi. I have been skimping on my aux tank filter changes tho. I'm sure that didn't help. I have been going about 50k on it,,, but it's a big azz big truck screw on fuel separator. I have been changing it when the pump starts pumping slow. That was my last fuel filter tho. I'm feeling very naked not running with an extra,, especially after pulling that nasty one. I've got the 100 of em on the way tho. I'm gonna be open to selling them. Some of them at least. Maybe we can start a network around the country. Anyone think they can get rid of em locally??

I'm hoping to be dropping them off all over the country.

I left one with m-chan for him to critique and compare to the ones in the mc boxes. Hopefully he has had time and can chime in about them.

I'm not liking the feeling of not having filters. The dealers are way too proud of the mc ones. These are racor. There's why I ordered 100. But I only use 3a month tops. I'd like everyone to check em out. Then I could see how much to ship them if need be. They're light at least.
