I understand this is going to renew an old debate over fuel filters, but I  
just wanted to note that Jim was using the clear, smaller scintered bronze  
filter.   I have a dislike of them because you cannot really tell what  is g
oing 
on.  The small bits of fiberglass dust and assorted crud that were  clogging

the filter were not really visible.

I like the large clear paper filters which offer a much greater surface  are
a 
for crud to accumulate.   And because they are so cheap, it is a  simple 
thing to change them often.

Yes, I know water will clog them.  But I have not had that  problem.   If yo
u 
get water, you can see it in the bottom of the  filter.

I just dont like the bronze ones.  Have heard too many stories from  
ultralight days about them

We went out and flew again a couple of more times.  I  had an issue with the

left wing tank, engine would not run as well on the left  as it would on the

right.  Changed the brass filter to a paper one and  ran the engine again.  
Everything seems to be ok. 
Here=99s a pic
