Fuel filter ?

What does the original filter lid look like? Mine will need changing soon but I don't know if i need to buy another lid. I bought my filter from international and my current lid has a square hole to put a ratchet in to remove it. It was on the truck when i bought it and i don't know if it is original or not.

that sounds like the oem one but you will have to take it off to tell if it is oem it will have the tab holes to click the filter into

This is my original one. Some say to replace it but mine is still fine after 10 years.

Mine looks just like Neal's. I replaced it a couple of years ago when I bought the truck. It had one of those that has the filter permanently attached.

I believe the ones that permanently attached are from autozone or advanced.

They could be. I use Wix filters and they need the original cap.

Keep the one that has the tab holes because you may want to throw another wix or something else in there.
By the way does anyone know the microns of filtration that different fuel filters get?
Wix - ?
Advance ?
