The filter at napa is a 3401 or wix 33401. It comes with the big and little orings. Normally wix will sell seals seperately but it can be tricky as they might be eachy or envelopes of 10. A counterman would need to look in his illustrated guide to get the part number or just call wix filter hot lineI pulled the large fuel filter from my M923A2. I also pulled the fuel hose from the filter to the engine. It was kinked and had cracks running along the bottom. This might explain my hard start issue. The inside of the filter case had a fair amount of gunk and rust inside it. The inlet drain valve was actually placed on the outlet side and tucked behind the Cab mount to the frame so it was difficult to get to and open. I am going to move back to the inlet side but will need a different AN fitting to do that.
Can the o Ring that fits between the filter case and the filter cover be purchased at NAPA? last picture

I pulled the canister off my 923A2 and there was no filter there (truck came straight from military). The TM only shows the small engine mounted fuel/water separator and not the large canister one. So do I need the larger filter or just put it back together like it was?The filter at napa is a 3401 or wix 33401. It comes with the big and little orings.

Well I can't really say that I did the work but a friend of mine who is an experienced welder/fabricator made this awesome receiver hitch for my 5 ton (the "Jolly Greenn")..
Dump bed conversion? For a M923? Tell me more please!I ordered the two hydraulic cylinders for the dump bed conversion.
Then I greased the truck, checked axles and etc.
Removed the big canister fuel filter and found no filter in it, just a bunch of sand. Also found the hose from the filter to the engine all kinked up and cracked.
