I'm trying to put a #33099 WIX filter in the glass bowl in my '28 roadster. The filter has a thin black disc with many small holes in its circumference at the top of it. How is this filter installed into the bowl?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I set the top of filter on the glass rim and put filter gasket on top of that and install the glass in the filter housing. The O.D. of the filter top is slightly larger than the I.D. of the glass bowl so the filter is captured by the filter housing and the glass bowl.
 
Thanks again GPierce.

My wife and I took the car for a ride this morning and it ran fine. I was hoping for this because the bulb was filled with nasty looking dark red e-10 gas which is around 3 or 4 months old. The gas in the bulb looks clear to me now.

That's interesting. I bought several of these filters from an O'Reilly store about a year ago. They had to order them from another store in Missouri. It's weird that these other filters have the same part number.
