Shrink to Fit
Dear EditoR
When we clean the M17
bu±er fuel FIer sediment
bowl in the field, we have
trouble with the ²lter gas-
kets. Once the ²lter is
taken apa³t´ the gaskets
swell and won't fit back in
the FµLer.
The best idea is to take
extra ¶·er elements (which
include gaskets},
NSN
29¸0¹00º057¹1421, to the
field and just replace the
gaskets and e»ement a¼er
you clean the ²lter. The el½
ement and gaskets cost
only$2.99.
But if you do get caught
short¾ we¿ve found that
leaving the gaskets in the
sun for five minutes
shrinks them back to norÀ
mal sizeÁ
