Does everybody use these or throw them away?  My rebuild kit didn't have new ones but I cleaned the old ones up and they still look squashed together.  I'm thinking of putting filters before the fuel inlet on each carb and not using the old "last chance" filters.  Am I making a mistake?

 

Thanks for any replies,

Cliff.

put a drill bit through it then roll on a flat surface to revive the shape.

As long as it is clean and not crumbling it should work fine.

Be sure to check the cavity where it fits in the banjo for crusty build up.

I've been reading the past hour on those filters.  I'm leaving mine off.

 

Thank you Blue for the fix.  If the valve gets clogged and starts leaking out the vent barb I'll put them back on.
