Do You Have A Inline Fuel Filter?

[Cecil]

Was wondering should I put a Inline Fuel Filter on my AIH? Do you guys have one on your Bigdog,HD,etc

Just the screen filter on the petcock on my bike. I know BD has issues with tank liners flaking off, but I check mine occassionally and there is rarely any debris in the screen.

I have a Pingel with braided hoses, I think it a good idea. It is simple to install and clean.

Yes, been running one now 3-4 years. Pingel, just be sure to get one that will flow enough fuel.

I agree. Need one that is high flow. I also have a Pingel and no issues.

Assuming you have to remove the petcock to inspect the screen, what are you guys using on petcock threads for sealant?
And are braided hoses necessary to prevent vapor lock or just for looks?
Thanks.

Just for Looks, why else

I recommend never using any fuel filter made of glass. Never...

Teflon tape on the threads!

gasoila or teflon tape

Why would you not use a glass one? I've been running glass fuel filters, so I can see what's going on for the past 40 years on 20 or so bikes and more high performance cars. I'm running one on 2 10 second cars I'm running reight now. I was using one when I saw the flakes from my BD tank liner floating through the system. Don't see any reason not to use one and many reasons to do so.

if you use teflon tape, get the yellow stuff for petroleum use, not the white.

X2 :iagree:

Had a Pingel on my '99 Bulldog for the 12 years I had it, great filter that was easy to inspect and clean. Haven't put one on my K9 yet, but I am strongly considering one now that I removed my buddy's petcock from his K9 and saw all the flakes of tank liner stuck on the screen.

I have also been running a Pingel fuel filter for about 4 years now :2thumbs:

Fuel filter & thread sealant

I use a Pingel, also. Petcock filter doesn't keep all the crap out of the carb. For petcock thread sealant I use
