Fit cheap Chinese knock off filters at your own peril.

Many such suppliers make these things to LOOK like the originals with zero focus on functionality. Not to mention safety!

The extra cost of good ‘branded‘ ones is insignificant in the scheme of things.

Was smelly, my nose alerted me first. I had a spare filter in the tail pack.
Would have been an"out of gas" situation, likely

For many years I've used those blue-anodized aluminum filters that screw together with a sintered bronze disc inside. I've never seen one fail... until I unscrewed one for inspection a while back. The ethanol had shrunk the gasket and now it won't seal. I haven't found a replacement seal in all my o-rings, gaskets, washers, etc. I haven't seen them for sale lately and I need some more.
