I've read all your posts, and all of any mail that comes into my
email box....I don't go to the "site". The only thing problem that
this creates is when somebody doesn't include a snippet of what they
are replying to...like you did here. But this thread is current
enough that even my poor memory allows me to "connect the dots." The
other problem is when someone only gets the "digest" and includes 44
messages in their reply, like I bitched about last week. : )
I doubt that the filter element is your problem. I'm keeping all of
my filters, no matter how much certain engineers might (for me)
confuse the issue with talk of surface tension, etc., my system flows
fuel as long as there's fuel in the system to flow...nudge, nudge,
wink, wink. ; )
