in line fuel filter

[coyotee]

what is the best reccommendation for an inline fuel filter for a '93 gs ?? 

[Dwn4whadever]

Peep the linky. One of the bottom two will do you fine.http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/Browse/tf-Browse/s-10101/N-111+10211+600014694/c-10111

[coyotee]

do you know the actual size of that? i am having problems fitting one w/o getting to close to the cyliners

[aaronstj]

Close to the cylinders?  Where are you mounting it.  Mine's mounted between the petcock and the carbs, nowhere near the cylinders.

Makes a huge, difference, too.  Catching all kinds of crud.

[coyotee]

i dont have very much room to work with, if i shift where i have the current one mounted it will be too close to the "hot" parts of the motor aka. cylinders..

right now where i have the filter it kinks the fuel line, if i run extra fuel line it put the filter w/in range of getting to close to hot stuff.
so...
yeah...

damn gs....

[dgyver]

I thought you just cleaned your tank?

[coyotee]

i did! 
its called preventative maintnience... in case i didnt gt everything out of the tank or it decides to do it agian, or any other # of reasions it is a GS afteralll

so, who makes a smaller diameter clear fuel filter ?

[coyotee]

wow a full day and no answer...

so, since ive herd of it but dont really know what it is could someone please post a pic of a "lunch box" for me so i can not be so ignorant?
( yeah i know im a smarta**)

[aaronstj]

Here's a lunch box filter.

[coyotee]

ok, please explain how it works ... ignorance is bliss they say!

[aaronstj]

You take the airbox off, and fasten the filter directly to the carbs.

[coyotee]

thats it? ...hmmmm how much does one of those run?

[aaronstj]

It's listed at $32.49 on knfilters.com.  Part #RU-2970.

Does this require a rejet, and how much will i gain from this upgrade

[guaitukei]

 NOOB questions follow:

   Would a lunch box fit a 2006 gs500F?

   Is the K & N filters SU 5589, the so-called pods?

   Which is considered better the lunch box or the SU 5589?

Thanks!

with the lunchbox you need to buy a breather for your valve cover.

[guaitukei]

The links explained a lot...

   However now I would like to know,

       the part number for a K & N crankcase filter that can be used to complete the installation of a lunchbox air filter?

            and how much do they usually run for?

                         Still debating over SU 5589 or a lunch box for an F model  (trying to figure out $$$ and installation conveniences for both).... Any help!

 
                                                                                                               Thanks!
