IMHO we should all be running a fuel filter in front of the fuel pump (and
after). The fuel pump is expensive and a 'pre' fuel fulter helps protect the
fule pump from damage.
My sentiments exactly. Only one small problem with this setup. When
that pre filter becomes plugged it will reduce fuel flow to the pump and
starvation and burn up of the pump is possible. You need to monitor the sound of
the pump. When the pump starts sounding weird then it's time to change that
pre filter.
