If that was a steel filter then you wouldn't know if the filter was floating around in there and there would be no worries. It's nice to see what is going on inside."

"Too true and maybe downright scary for most folks Maybe a simple no filter "sight glass" is needed? Again blowing thru the failed one had significant resistance and almost total blockage if the loose cartridge moved"

Also this:

"Auto parts place pulled all theirs off the shelf after i showed them mine. They also said edelbrock no longer supplies them with their new carbs. So much for product quality and problem announcements. Got an email from a guy in snow country saying that additives like stabil or heet may cause almost immediate failures."
