Changed the gas filter in the glass bowl. Purchased the filter from Show-Cars.
Before you start all the negative comments, I’m not a racer & I like the stock look, so stop before you start.
Anyway I thought I’d comment on the Quality of the filter.
The top & paper filter Element of the filter were fine, as it went right up into the Metal fuel line part.
It’s the bottom of the filter element that has a lot to problems. quality control issue.
It’s made of a harder flat material then the filter.
That material was not lined up to the rest of the filter, so when you placed the glass bowl around it with the gasket the system would leak.
Figured out all you need to do is trim any of that bottom base to the paper element and the filter lines up great, no leaks.
Also don’t over tighten the nut that hold the glass bowl up or you will cut the gasket.
