I got the petcocks complete last year and I found one of the filters to have a hole in it. I can't remember where I got them though.
alcabe said:Thanks guys. I think you're right, the inline filters are the way to go.

I ran across Pingel filters in a H-D aftermaket shop. Haven't had a problem since I installed them. Put crimp ferrules on the hose ends instead of hose clamps and you'll have a nice looking installation too. My suggestion would be to forget the stock screens and go with the Pingels.
