twin fuel filters

[Lon nan Gruagach]

I though that 2 in serise was so that if the first clogged and had a hole punched in it then the second would catch the ****. Air filters do that...

Thanks for the PIC...does the fuel supply come in from the right of the PIC? I want to make my own set up.

No it comes in on the left & out on the right. There are in & out ports on both sides of the filters so you can make it up how you want (arrows can just be seen if you zoom in).

Do buy a pipe bender to make life easier, Ebay has them & don't forget sealant on the joints.

Thanks, I will, one question... Sorry if its a silly one but I notice the two filters are connected, doesn't that defeat the object of have a separate system, I can't figure out how you would isolated the blocked filter.

Not at all silly, the valves are called "L Port" & switch one input port to either output port. Which ever filter is not in use is totally isolated.

You must of course operate both valves together or it could be a bit embarrassing when the engine goes quiet:encouragement: I mounted my valves so the levers always point the same way to avoid any errors.

Thanks, that makes sense.
