Angelo

I added a glass one with replaceable filter to the '3, I found that under
driving it was good, but a little spirited driving actually caused issue.
Mind you I did at that time have the OEM pump and the filter was by the tank (
before the pump )

Hello List:
After rebuilding my carbs (again) and getting them back on the car, I was
advised to fit an in-line gas filter. I have sourced a generic nylon bodied
see through type with what appears to be a paper filter inside.
Was also advised to fit this in-line before the fuel pump to prevent damage to
the fuel pump valves. I was going to install it before the carbs on a
convenient stretch of the metal gas line.
Any comments on installing the filter before the fuel pump? Should I install
another before the pump as well?
Interested in others' experiences.
Thanks for any advice on this one.
Angelo Graham
