Is aanyone using a fuel filter on thier quad? I saw a really nice chrome one at the auto parts store for like $9.00. Do they hurt the engine at all? thanks

 

I am also wondering this..

 

I use a in-line fuel fliter on my quad.

 

"inline" meaning that it is just like a filter where u cut ur hose placed it in there and then run it? its between ur tank and ur carb? I was thinking and it seems like a good idea considering the fact that i ride at the dunes alot and when filling sometimes dirt may blow by and what not [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

I use one of those in line filters between the petcock and carb, the sintered metal filter ones. Seems like an ounce of prevention to me.

 

I use one but it's see through. Don't get one for a lawnmower though, they won't flow enough.

 

you are correct, you can pick up small clear ones from most bike shops for a couple of bucks

 

I like the idea, but does it slow down the flow of fuel at all?

 

is that forsure? or just soemthing that you are asuming?

 

i use one and my bike runs fine, i like it because it keeps dirt from going in the carb, i would recomend putting one on.
