Change Air Filter
I need to change out the air filter on my 6.0 and was looking for a faq here but seems the search function is down until the new server is in operation. This has probably already somewhere but can't seem to find it.
My dilema is that I tried to change out the air filter and unhooked the 4 or 6 snap hooks that hold it in place. I was able to separate the front and back from the filter can, but was not able to pull the can out. I looked for retaining screw or a latch I missed, but before I broke something, I thought I would ask the experts at FTE. Seems like it should pull straight up and out. I checked the manual and it not useful.
Thanks in advance.

I lost a clip once, never did find it. I got two more from a dealer. Now, when I change or check the air filter, I take them off and set them aside. I keep the spare in a glove box.
