Is anyone else annoyed at the fuel filter set up on this tractor? I was blading some branches today and a stick must have hit the plastic cover.Not the first time ive had to replace it.Can it be replaced with a standard metal filter?

I know exactly what you mean. I have had the same problem so I got 2 each the last time I was at the dealer.

I fabricated a piece of stout steel angle iron and placed it in front of the filter to protect the filter. I can send you a pic of you want it. that filter now comes in metal for 4x the price of the plastic but I don't think it protects the filter enough.
