Fuel filter
Just putting this out there for a fyi. Was experiencing some bogging on the last cool ride. Long story short, seems my in-line fuel filter was chocking the fuel supply. Makes sense, it was only over a year old! Swap out those filters! ...or don't run one, which is the route I'm tring out.

Yeah, just had the same problem at the enduro today.
Good practice to change them out sooner.

interesting this post came up. I was removing my shock last night and a slight tug on my fuel line snapped the fuel filter, luckily this happened in the workshop rather than the bush!
I don't think i will replace it, i figure the sieves in the tank should do a good enough job

If you've had enough crap end up in the filter after a year, what do you expect to happen in the next year?? It'll either end up in the carb or the engine.. easier to replace filters I think..

Same as mine Matt (except I use a straight one instead of L shape). Ime I agree with you, best to try and keep clean fuel going in, however when I refill at some remote-ish servos' its hard to know just how good that fuel is coming out the line.
I haven't had one bloke up on the Gasser yet, but can see how they could get a bit brittle with time.. Then again, so does the fuel line itself. |
