Jim L. in OR, strongly recommend you use a new filter element. If that element has been in the car for 26 years it is dangerous. It can come apart and cause serious damage to your engine. Did I read somewhere you were using an element that came with the car? If so, same warning. Get a new one, they are cheap. The filter housing is easy enough to remove from the engine so it can be thoroughly cleaned. Good luck.
