If you clean the screen thoroughly and it doesn't have any wholes in it, you should be able to reuse it. Make sure it is not plugged up.

Thats what I was hoping. I would have to special order it also. My wife's car thru a rod bearing when she kept putting off her oil changes for so long that the screen got plugged up with crud. she doesn't wait anymore!!
