You also have the possibility of getting watery fuel or condensation causing mold growth (the reason diesel trucks change fuel filters at every oil change).

I have convinced myself that a filter isn't needed in most cases. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Mathster) http://tunfs.yuku.com/sreply/44319 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 21:36:31 GMT http://tunfs.yuku.com/reply/44316/t/2008-fuel-filter.html#reply-44316 Its vandalism type introductions of sand, sugar,etc, or a dirty portable can of fuel,etc.
In either case, its easier to remove the faulty items .... outside of the tank....rather than inside. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Gold NH 4 x 4) http://tunfs.yuku.com/sreply/44316 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 19:57:56 GMT http://tunfs.yuku.com/reply/44315/t/2008-fuel-filter.html#reply-44315
That being said, the fuel system is a closed system so any contamination would have to be introduced at the time of filling. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Mathster) http://tunfs.yuku.com/sreply/44315 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 19:28:16 GMT http://tunfs.yuku.com/reply/44312/t/2008-fuel-filter.html#reply-44312 feeds@yuku.com (irkingu2) http://tunfs.yuku.com/sreply/44312 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 23:03:07 GMT http://tunfs.yuku.com/reply/44302/t/2008-fuel-filter.html#reply-44302
But, that being the case, even if we had an external filter, the contaminants if entered into the fuel tank, would plug the
suction screen FIRST, thus causing the removal of the sender unit anyway.
