Courtney -

I thought the same damn thing. Why on earth would the filter be after the
pump? It wasn't like this pre-86' I think. At least it wasn't on my 85'.
The filter was the litttle square plastic one and was before the pump.

I have heard of people filtering before and after on their Vanagon. Does
anyone know if there is any real benefit or detriment to this? I mean common
sense says two filters are better than one - but you just never know what
that could do.

Thanks,
