Translation....

I had a shop install an aftermarket fuel filter on my car. As a result of installing this filter, I noticed a decrease in fuel pressure. Within one month of this filter being installed, my car began making a choking noise and died. The worst part was that I found myself stuck 200 miles from home when it died. For anyone needing to replace their fuel filter, I would highly recommend purchasing the OEM part. The money that I saved by purchasing an aftermarket part was not worth the headaches that ultimately ensued.


I would assume that English is not his native language.

Just trying to help out as English does not appear to be his native language.

I didn't quite get it the first time I read it so I pretended Pizzaguy posted it.
Made perfect sense then!

I've been using the purolator fuel filter for quite some time now. No complaints here.

I think English is his native language alright, I think he grew up on texting or something like that. He just left out a few important words - like the ones that would have it make sense.
