Good Fuel Filter

[Twism86]

Whats a good fuel filer? I have one on my bike however for the past year I have been running on reserve because it dies on "ON." My guess is the FF is clogged (or a line).

Also, if reserve still works fine it means I DONT have a vacuum problem right?

I do NOT run a fuel filter because of the Chance of restricted fuel flow.

But IF you run one it Must be for motorcycles and NOT cars. Something like this http://www.bikebandit.com/visu-filter-slimline-compact-body-fuel-filter

This



NOT This



I have seen smaller fuel filters in a local m'cycle store. So have a look around.

To know for sure, remove the fuel filter and see if you can run on On.

Reserve does NOT use the vacuum. It bypasses it. So "no", your bike's ability to run on Res does Not mean you are free of vacuum problems.

I second that first picture mister posted.  You can get a K/N motorcycle fuel filter for like 10 bucks at Advance.  It might be a special ship item though and take a few days, mine did.
