Basically I am interested in preventing some very small rust particles from reaching the carbs on my 76 TR6. The rust is originating in some of t; /html/triumphs/1997-11/msg01157.html (8,371 bytes)

Forgive me my ignorance but I was wondering how effective a magnet would be if it were taped to the outside of the fuel filter.

3. Re: fuel filters (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 18 Nov 1997 10:12:57 -0800; Ed, Sounds reasonable to me. Many engines and transmissions have a magnatized drain plug to attract metal filings that come off moving parts through wear.

I wouldn't think that they would be strongly attracted, if at all. Sounds liek a good idea though. Maybe it will work like one of those J; /html/triumphs/1997-11/msg01166.html (7,464 bytes)

7. Re: fuel filters (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 18 Nov 1997 10:44:02 -0800; Mike, The original question was regarding rusty fuel lines letting rust particles go into the carbs. I has a similar problem, but it was my tank, not the lines which were passing the rust flakes. I r; /html/triumphs/1997-11/msg01170.html (9,240 bytes)
8. Re: fuel filters (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 18 Nov 1997 13:51:44 -0800; Peter, if you do not eleminate the cancer it will just grow and grow. Don't price fuel filters, replace the gas line. With all the time and effort checking out filters the line could have been replac; /html/triumphs/1997-11/msg01171.html (9,987 bytes)
9. RE: fuel filters (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 18 Nov 1997 11:49:32 -0700; Actually the original question was concerning rust particles. But any particles would be potentially bad.

RE: fuel filters (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 18 Nov 1997 12:02:02 -0700; I realize this may sound like I am being lazy but I did look at replacing the offending line (the long metal one under the car along the frame).

12. Re: fuel filters (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 18 Nov 1997 16:53:24 -0800; Seems like a lot of worry about a small problem.

One at the tank and one just in front of the fuel pump. I have even considered putting one just in front of the carbs. I'd rather be safe th; /html/triumphs/1997-11/msg01198.html (8,480 bytes)
