GT and fuel filters

[CNSelf]

I tried putting a fuel filter on my GT last night and couldn't find a good place to secure it, so I went to Google images and looked at all the GT's I could dig up - almost all of them were sans filter. Is there something about the GT that makes filters tough to install or did I just see a bad sampling of pics? Most of them used a very short link between tank and carb, which is what I have as well.

Thanks for any guidance on how & where to strap this thing down

Just find a place and grab a zip tie.

I don't run a fuel filter neither do any of the guys at my local track. I bought one and put it on for like 1 day and took it off.

your tank filter should be fine if you don't run in really dusty terrain. I do so I put one on all my offroads! Follow EP's advise and zip tie that thing some where safe!!

Gotcha - I just couldn't figure out why I didn't see a single one with a filter on it - I'll have to figure a place out because I do run it in dusty conditions. Will fuel tubing melt if it has to go around the heat sink?

 

[jon2]

yeah it will try some of the heat shielding that the Tmaxx has in there

just cut a spot in ur fuel line between the tank and the carb. u dont really want it around any moving parts where it could flop in the way. u would be better off zip tying it to like a shock tower or something.
