    Just stop-in to an AutoZone and pick-up a FRAM Universal Inline Filter.
    Clear.
    Extraordinary filtering ability.
    Easy to install.
    Disposable.

    Made in the USA
    $4.00

    I like the non disposable version, as long as you can either wash or buy screen replacements.

    I like these, the stone is a finer filter than the plastic gauze and at $3 a pop you just throw them away:

    However, you DO need to replace them regularly:

    I used this style on my 650 because there is more room than on the 550s:

    Ya think? It's not rusted. (Plastic doesn't rust.)

    It's BAKED. (But it was still doing its job.)
