IP Pump

Last time i had my pump out i removed the oil filter housing, is this necessary because its a real pain. I am going to replace the IP.
Thanks

It is not necessary to remove it, most folks don't. It's still a pita to get the IP off due to that bracket/nut behind it by the filter housing, but it can be done. It's a bigger pita to try to get the oil filter off though,lol.
