Engine Mechanical problem
2004 GMC Canyon Four Wheel Drive Automatic

replacement fuel filter has plastic clips on in and out ends. When removing old fuel filter these plastic clips are not present. Line disconnects from old filter easily but no clips on old filter. Should I remove clips from new filter and put it on or are old clips stuck in the line? I have cross referenced at different retailers and manufacturers to be sure I have the correct part.
