Where is the best place for a inline fuel filter before or after the fuel pump? I've got a 202 red motor with a standard carby. Bazza

Bazza,
          Put the fuel filter before the pump as the filters are not designed for fuel under pressure.  I know someone who's car caught on fire because the fuel filter ruptured.  This ended up as a court case due to the positioning of the filter.
