Re: [Chrysler300] Fuel Filter Available

["Ron Waters" <ronbo97@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

But why go thru the hassle of working with those chemicals and potentially 
contaminating your fuel when you can purchase a new one for around five 
bucks ? Another issue I've run into is when you remove the glass bowl to 
change the filter, the filter is stuck to the gasket, which ends up tearing 
when you try to separate the two.

Ron,

I think that's for the "can" type in line filter.
