Primary Fuel Filter

[fpchief]

Yet another question....i got my filters from Oriellly since NAPA is closed today. The primary is the WIX 33113. The deal is that the caps in picture do not fit the filter, filter is slightly larger diameter. Question is, is it a big deal or should i get the NAPA filter? The 33113 is listed on the awesome parts quick reference.

My guess is that the new filter does not have metal caps? The metal caps are not supposed to be removable or re-used. Any pictures of the old and new filter?

What came out of it was a NAPA 3511 and those caps fit nicely over each end of it and it does have its own existing caps on the filter. The new one looks just like it but just slightly larger diameter and those caps does not fit on it. Never seen those on my other deuces so this may be something left from previous owner. The diagram for the canister assembly does show what i think are these caps.
