I decided to check the oil strainer today when changing my oil. Had not done this since I bought the buggy two years ago. Only drain and fill previously. Was surprised to discover that the screen was bent in a little on one side when I removed it. I further bent it a little not realizing that you just can't touch the screen at all. I assume it's a very cheap aftermarket one.
Does this affect the oil flow at all? Wanted to get this project finished up without having to order a new strainer and none of the local parts stores have one in stock.
Not sure if I should reinstall it this way or wait and get a new one. It is not torn of coming loose from the plate.
Thoughts? |

| X2 just put it back with new gaskets. Even the originals get dented and bent. |
