Do you see any movement on your $15 minder?
Interesting. The one on my 2000 Silverado and parents 2002 work just fine.
My 2004 GMC did not have one but I installed a minder that I got from NAPA since they worked well on my other trucks.

The one installed on a 2.2L four-banger didn't move a millimeter, even with several WOT runs.
Mine may be defective, but I have read other peoples posts on my truck forum that also say their filter minder doesn't work even when they used a vacuum cleaner to test it.
Yeah, that doesn't sound right. I was surprised at the small amount of suction pressure that it took to move mine into the red zone.
