OK, thats what I thought. But I pulled like a sonofa gun on that thing and it would not come out.
I'll try harder now that I know I am not going to destroy anything except the filer for sure.
Thanks very much!
You know, I've been driving these things over 20 years and only learned there is a filter in there about a year ago.
