Recommend me a pre-pump filter
TrophyJem - 29/4/14 at 06:02 PM

I want to put a fuel filter before my low pressure fuel pump, but space is at a premium so I'm looking for a small one.

Any recommendations?

The idea is that the plumbing will go;
Fuel tank
Filter
Low pressure pump
Swirl pot
High pressure pump
High pressure filter
Fuel rail
Regulator

Cheers

Get a facet pump, in built filter. Can be slightly noisy though.

I had problems with the filter on my Facet pump and have converted to the small disposable fuel filters , the one with a 6mm and an 8 mm inlet /outlet , cost a couple of pounds

It is a Facet pump. Its a Gold Flo

Does that mean it has a filter in it?

I had one of the facet bolt on type filter for all of two miles fuel was all but blocked from it. So went for a cheap Halfrods plastic one like mr rusty nuts so far so good 200 miles and two sprints
