I've a clear plastic filter between the tanks and the square filter. FRAM
G2. about $3CDN. I change it whenever I see any crud in it, and  check it
every oil change. Haven't had any vaporisation issues with the fuel. I'm
running an I4 conversion with CIS, so it is a high pressure system, but
things may be different on the flat four motor.

Oh and I kept the square filter as well because it has a one way valve in
it......
