Who else buys bulk fuel filters online? I bought these ones over the winter.
They work great, and are the same as the ones I buy at the auto parts store, but much cheaper. These were $2 a piece, instead of $5 a piece. Also, it is very nice to have them on hand. After I went through those ones, I bought this set.
I bought this style because they looked like they had more filter material, and the metal cap made it look like it was a good filter to me; however, These were very low quality. One of them had a hole in the mold seam where the nipple came out of the canister. Last time I mowed, I noticed the tank was empty, and I figured I stopped right at the perfect time. Today when I checked the gas before mowing, I suspected an underlying issue when I found the same empty tank. Upon closer inspection, where the two halves are molded together, was leaking! After I noticed that was the issue I threw away the last one Before I went to the store to get a good filter. I ordered more of the original style filters that we probably all use, and will be replacing the two filters I have on other tractors before they start leaking.
I know this is a pretty long post about something small, but I’m enjoying being on the forums again!
