Fuel filters
Turbo Mini Forums

Just looking at which fuel filters to use on my turbo set-up, the feed is 8mm and return 10mm and I'm using a carb.
Not using the standard fuel tank, ive got an alloy fuel tank so there is no inbuilt filter in the tank, so I'm thinking of using this filter:

With a 150 micron filter between the tank and pump as it'll flow well and not starve the pump.

Do I also need a filter after the pump? Or maybe between the fuel reg and carb?
Cheers!

I have one filter fitted between the pressure regulator and the carburettor. I would advise against fitting a filter between the tank and pump as that's what it sounds like you ate considering.

Own the day

I would ALWAYS fit a filter between tank and pump!! Any small particals could damage the pump. Plus most fuel pumps will come with a warranty disclaimer in them saying a pre filter must be used. If you are at all worried fit one pre pump and post pump. Most good quality filters wouldnt decrease your flow by a noticeable amount (unless your running like 400hp?!) although i wouldnt purchase that horrible thing from jjc. Which is demon tweeks if you didnt know.

^^ Always between tank and pump, i killed a pump in miles because it sucked up shit,
mine is an uno turbo pre pump, focus post pump, the uno turbo one is 12mm id and has been fine on mine for 28psi, infact it had been spiked to 35psi boost, and the fuel pressure as high as 4.5 bar

( i think it was the uno turbo anyway)

Yes i moved to the darkside
