[T3] fuel filter

[Daniel K. Du Vall]

I already installed one of your kits. And went through the tank clean out long ago. 
Was just wanting to make sure with the new FI that i get good filtration and don't miss anything that might damage stuff downstream.  A lot of the Megasquirt stuff I have read they are running pre filters 100 micron and 10 micron or smaller post fuel pump which I think would be overkill so just wanted to make sure.

The stock system uses only a single pre-pump filter. That filter alone is more than sufficient. VW recommended replacement of that filter every 30k miles, but I never replace them unless there's been a problem with the overflow hose, that let a lot of dirt into the gas tank.

Have you installed one of my overflow hose kits? That's the one most important thing you can do for your system. Everything else, other than the stock filter, is just window dressing.
