I removed the wing nut but the cover will not budge. Parts diagram does not show a washer, just the nut. Tried lock-ease on the wing nut stud and around the seam. Does not appear rusted at all.

Was able to insert a thin blade and run along the seam on the right side, can not reach the left.

Tried reefing on the cover and heard a metalic crack - perhaps part of the rear portion attachment flange.

Even if I could get the entire filter assempbly loose I doubt it could be withdrawn throught the grille opening.

Comments sought - Thanks!
