Yes. It is after the pump to protect the injectors. I have heard that the filter is after the pump because having a clogged filter before the pump can burn out the pump since it uses the fuel to cool itself. (Of course, this does not explain the plastic pre-filter) My understanding is that the pre-filter was on the California Vanagons only. Anyone know why? Todd I just checked my other german car and it also has a fuel filter after the electric fuel pump. -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: Mike Stainbrook <mike90260@PEOPLEPC.COM> > Hi All-another silly Question: my 85 has the fuel filter installed after > the fuel pump (down stream) is this for real? the brackets only allow this > config,but there is evidence of mods,the clamps changed,strange hose > coulpings..Should I change to filter then pump? per Bently sketch?
