....designed & built these?I cross-threaded the canister.
Why did the make the metal lines
go right under it?Makes it almost im-
possible to line it up.
I got a letter from the California-
Air Quality Control Board,after someone
reported my panel laying a smoke cloud
out the back.
It's fixed - but I'm so irritated!

A new oil filter did away with the smoke cloud? A well placed dirty shop rag should plug up the loose lips if you can find them.

You got reported 'cause of a smoke cloud? Okay, glad I don't live in Calif. Though, I don't remember mine doing that, either.

If you're not keeping it "stock" switch to a spin-on filter. I bought an adapter at an Auto parts store and it works GREAT! Still have the canister in case I ever want to switch back. smile
