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.

This subject was discussed in GREAT detail by many  a few months ago.  Check
the archives for a winters night reading on the  subject.
