Hey gang, pulled the cover of the EAS box under the hood to inspect and satisfy my curiosity. Seems there's a tiny filter/screen on the inlet to the pump. Is there a service interval for replacing this filter? Given the flimsy appearance of the part, has anyone tried to replace it with one of those tiny K&N breather filters? From looking at it, seems that ought to be a good fit. Dust particles etc will probably be what kills the pump and the system as a whole.. so, seems keeping them out in the first place ought to be a good thing. Also, ventilation is really non-existant inside that plastic box. Given how hot it gets in that space, that seems like really poor placement. Anyone have any thoughts on heat being an issue? I'll put a thermo probe in there one of these days just to check. Oh, this is on a '99 RR HSE. Thanks, Christian
