That's the plan, just waiting on the weather to clear up a bit so I can check.

Yeah, so the sock fell off and or deteriorated before I got the truck. I haven't had this issue before, so that's why I'm going to try the cheap fix of changing filters first, then dive into the rest if that doesn't fix it
