| We have the same jug: CLICK Depending on where you get fuel, the amount/kind of garbage that comes running out of your filter can vary greatly. A lot cleaner than yours and a whole lot worse. Smile. None of that went through your CP4.2 (or any further). Was that the first filter change since you bought the truck?

| Insert cool slogan here ![]() ![]() | I see a little water but it looks like the filter did its job. You should post some pictures of the actual filter media.

Cut the canister with a cold-chisel or pipe cutter (anything that will not leave cuttings in the canister). -Bunch up the media like a compressed accordion. -Squeeze the fuel out of it in a vise OR with paper towel and your hands. -"Unbunch" the aforementioned media and read your engine's fortune. -Oh, and post a pic of it!
