Default Beautiful day for boating

" It is not really that expensive. You just buy the filter and bowl. I
agree it is a tad over twice as much as the all metal filter element
but not a lifetime worth.
I do just use the metal one without the bowl tho. Same theory as you.
Mine is out in the open and the sun kills the plastic see through
bowl. After a while you can't see through it anymore. "


I was thinking I'd have to replace the base part and some of the plumbing/fittings.
The link provided by EarlyBird quoted a sale price of about $65.00.
Up here that would translate into around $100.00 after shipping and brokerage fees.
Don't know what they sell for locally.

Greg, they usually have a mesh screen up inside the top to help filter out rust etc

You might want to check that out before you throw good advice aside,
eh? What else do you have to do all day?

You might get lucky and find a better filter that spins right onto your
fitting.
