Volks,

A few weeks ago the subject of pre-filters came up again and someone suggested a vendor that could supply a filter that had 14mm hose connections.  Figuring that was close enough to the required 12mm to probably fit, I purchased one.  Since they had a minimum order of $20 I also bought a nifty collapsible lug wrench.  That plus nearly $10 for shipping meant I was spending 30 bucks for a filter!  Oh well, at least I would finally have it and the lug wrench looks nice under the bench.  What I got worked perfectly and was a NAPA filter (NAPA Gold 3299).  So there you go, if you need a pre-filter with large hose connections at both ends, visit your local NAPA dealer and I'd be willing to bet you'll pay a lot less that 30 bucks.  I'm going to go buy another one to improve my average cost. ;-)
