Roy, we've added a lot of in line fuel filters to tractors and lawnmowers 
with no problems. None of them were automotive filters (that I am aware of). 
Napa keeps a good selection of them. I have one tractor that has a sediment 
bowl type filter with a replaceable filter. It looks better on a restored 
tractor than a plastic in line filter. With that one you don't have to 
convert to rubber lines. To the untrained eye it looks like it belongs on 
the tractor.

Do I remember right that normal car fuel filters have too much
restriction, and we should look for the right kind to put on gravity
fed fuel systems?  The '51 IHC W-4 here, for instance?
