Thanks for the link. I have been cutting them open with a tin snips but it is a pain to do. I couldn't even imagine the mess with a cut off wheel.

I have been doing mine with a Dremel (started fire almost), but now I have secondary fuel filter so I don't need one for the next 30K or so. Let us know what ya get and give us a review on it please.
