Don't buy cheap fuel filters.

I decided to change my fuel filter as it's been quite awhile and I've had some weird fuel things happening so I thought it would be worth a shot. I get the old one out and notice this:

(if you don't feel like downloading, it was basically a baby rattle)

So I get pissed off and decide to disect it and see what happened:

So lesson learned. Not sure where I got this one but I think it may have been an Autozone special. Bought a Wix filter and I can already see it should be better.
