OK,
I have a mind to change out the fuel filter on my 68.  Its an air conditioned car, and the filter number for AC/Delco is GF440, if my research is correct.  Firstly, is that correct, does anyone have the GM number?  Secondly, are there any tricks that I should know about changing it?  It looks like the entire metal cannister gets discarded, although Chiltons indicates otherwise.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Archie CLC #17647

Im not sure of the part number but it is something common enough that I just go to the local parts store and get one.  About the only pita part is laying on your back with gas running down your arms.

I replaced my 68 Eldorados when I got it several years ago.  It had never been replaced and was partly clogged.  It was easy to replace.  My local auto store ordered it and I picked it up the next day.
