Besides Hastings being good stuff, some of that description is hype. OEM Honda fuel filters are metal, not "plastic bowls", so that whole statement is bogus. I bet you'll find it's a good quality filter that's nearly identical to a dealer fuel filter.

Sounds like it includes the washers for the banjo fitting at the top of the filter. That's good, 'cause you should use new ones.

 

just install a factory filter,,,,,,it costs only around 25 dollars , that is a good deal for at least 30,000 miles or more

I agree with JIm.. all that crap about hasting filter this and that, is just to impress ,,

 

Thanks Guys,

I know this is a PITA job, so now need to find some crows feet and patience!
