Thanks for the info. Was there any need to change the tube per the link in Nick's post if the length was different?

I left the one that came with it in. It appears that the tube is to prevent the filter from imploding. I have never had my filter show signs of collapsing. I did save the old one incase there is a problem when I change it again.

Grisik, Where did your cap break? Did you have any problems after the break taking it off?

It rounded off the corners. Then the plastic started to break when I used a set of channel locks. I had to take the plastic AND metal cover off the bottom of the car so I could get a grip with the channel locks. Old one off, new one on.
