pf 7977 does not fit?
Just got a pf7977 filter and it does not clip into the cap(it does not have a lip, smaller dia at top than oem) Is this correct?

Just the top is to narrow diameter to clip into cap, no lip. Height and length are fine, cap pressure should hold filter down and in place I guess.

New Napa Gold 3585XE fuel filters also no longer clip into the lid. No idea why they changed it. Clipping into the lid is only for ease of installation and removal. It has nothing to do with filtration because the filter seals at the bottom of the housing. Just push the new filter down into the housing until you feel it "thunk" and seal at the bottom. Please refrain from turning this into a filter war thread.
