Anyone else have a problem with the FASS filters not seating all the way??? I put one on the other day and it bottomed out on the nut the filter screws onto! It would only allow me to get 1/4 turn after the o-ring touched the pump housing. It's not leaking, but it's not on tight enough to stay put I'm afraid it will fall off at some point.:surprise:

Are you using the Fass filters? I use wix filters but never had a problem. I think that threaded nut can unthread from the filter housing, did you make sure it didn’t come unthreaded when you spun the old filter off

Just did this and no leaks with these filters. Last time I had Fass filters and they tightened up ok. Be careful the threads on the unit seem fragile.

I didn't check that...That would cause what I'm experiencing for sure! but, I also noticed the Cat filters have a cast threaded piece in their filters that is flat and gives more room to screw on. But I should not be having this issue. I called FASS and they had no idea, so it must be something I did wrong...:frown2:
