Fuel Filter and E-Brake Loop Questions:
So, I changed the fuel filter in my truck today. The open/close valve leaks when it's open around the pivot point. Is there a part number for that? I can't find one.
Second, the filter was a little different (Wix) than the one I had in there (Fleetguard) - there was a top O-ring, and a smaller o-ring for the middle, then a small o-ring on the shaft inside the housing. Everything went back together fine and it's running perfect - does that sound OK? Different manufacturers use different filters?
Also, do you guys know anyone that makes a heavy duty e-brake loop? (Takes the slack out?) or any tricks for tightening it?

I bought one from dodge but you can take the whole thing apart and in the HELP section at your auto parts store get the oring kit to repair it as for the WIX filter I use them no issue on the our 97 or any other year we have 1st 2nd and 3 gen trucks , the ebrake might be a salvage yard
