Sorry if this hits the list twice, the first one I sent from a different 
email account and don't think it got through.

A friend of mine has a Spitfire with the original air cleaner housing 
and wants to replace the filter.   It has been a long time since I tried 
to get one of these apart, but as I recall, the plate on the carb side 
is just pushed into the  housing.  We tried to separate the 2 pieces, 
but they don't want to come apart.
Is there some trick to getting the 2 pieces apart?  Was I just not using 
enough force?

Thanks,

Roger Elliott
