I haven't used a filter yet but i am pretty sure this guy has it on the wrong line but correct me if i am wrong.

yep in the wrong place needs to be in the other line no fuel goes through the line he has it on.

Some people do that so they can run a shorter pressure line and not have it so so choppy......he probably had a good one on the fuel side and is keeping it for another RC.......or he's a dingus and I wouldn't buy an RC that he was running w/ no fuel filter

Yes and no... Some people put them in-line with the exhaust to keep debris from entering the fuel tank... I dont know if it actually does anything, because the exhaust always blows stuff out... i guess you can't be too safe... :shrug:

Do you get the ashtray and cigarette butts too? Yum, yum! He porbably put it in there instead of running a longer line. I put longer line on my pressure side and it helped with the temps as the fuel load burned off.

I've never seen that done before.dont see how it could help very much

For you guys with the moron comments it just shows how little you really know. Putting a filter on the pressure line helps smooth out how much pressure is getting to the tank. This way you don't have to run a foot of line you can run 1/2 of that or less. Pressure line tuning is a big part of engine tuning. If your pressure line is way off you tune will be too!

Oh, I am sure you can add performance and save engine wear by doing something like that... But HE on the other hand, does not.
