I figured Why I am replacing worn out parts , I should get a new fuel filter..Seeing that they want $16 bucks for the OEM and auto zone sells small engine filters for $4, I was wondering if there is any difference between OEM and a universal filter?
Not saying it won't work in your case with the fuel filter but the hassel of it not fitting (or working) properly becomes a possibility that may end up costing you twice for the same part.In the long run, Using OEM parts just may cost you less money!
