Fuel Filter Question was created by JR

Does anyone use this type of fuel filter (Emgo) and if so are they any good ?

I usually use a little clear plastic conical shaped one with a brass thingy inside but the local shop were out of stock

If it does not restrict the fuel flow I'd say use it. I like to get the biggest fuel filter I can as it will take longer to collect the crud from the tank compared to a smaller one that might last a few weeks.

if nothing is in the way I would use it, I think you can take that one apart and clean it also

I have used that type in the past, and yes, you can take them apart and clean them.

Yep it comes apart and comes with a replacement inner element. I'll install it in the morning. Should be fine

they work well but i always use the russel anodized alluminium ones that have a removable brass inner they a bit smaller so take up less space and they come in three pretty colors also a bunch of different sizes.
