Dear Rob,
the clear in-line filters with a inner filter element made from paper
are built to work between the fuel pump and the carburettor. They
work very well and filter very fine, but they have a high resistance
to the streaming fluid. On the pressure side of the pump this is
no problem, but on the suction side of the pump this can make some
problems. (vapour lock and so on). Those paper filters can also
make problems in fuel systems with gravity feed.
If you want to fit a filter in front of the pump on the suction side,
use a clear in-line filter with a metal (brass?) grid as filter
element. Those filters are for sale at motorbike shops (Nearly every
motorbikes has a gravity feed fuel system).
