[AT] Oil filter question... (second try)

[Dallas and Kathy]

It doesn't surprise me that the Kawasaki filters are as high as they are. I 
have a 3010 Mule diesel. I lost the fuel cap somehow.  I went to the 
Kawasaki dealer thinking it would not cost much, after all, it is just a 
little plastic cap. right?  $50.00 including tax. Needless to say, I told 
them to forget it, and I walked out. The orange fuel cap off of my C Allis 
fits .   So now, I have a Mule with as orange fuel cap.  Dallas
