Secondary and Tertiary Fuel Filters

So I know that my fuel tank has junk it in. I tried to de-rust it years go. It sat open for a long time. So I figured that I would put two fuel filters in line.

Do any of ya'll run with a secondary fuel filter?

Do any of ya'll run with a tertiary fuel filter?

Which filters do you use? What arrangement?

 

months and months ago, when I was thinking about this I had this setup:

Petcock - stock
Secondary - paper with magnet - link
Tertiary - right angle - link

Now that I'm actually using the bike and have fuel going through it I'm seeing that I don't have sufficient space between the carbs and the tank for the size of the secondary one because I don't see the tertiary one filling up like I should.

 

Interesting share....I have never seen or heard of a magnet filter before, interesting.

I would go after the tank again. Will it ever stop rusting if you just let it keep going the way it is? Will you have to keep running filter and changing them out every so often? I guess it all depends on what you want to do. Just know that even those filters are letting some bits go by. If you were to open the carb bowls I would guess you would have some junk in there. I would also guess you are having the occasional sputter or pop when you are riding?

 

I would clean the tank and if needed line it.

 

I use one inline filter and the four beanie-cap filters..... so— two filters

 

Clean out the tank info overload has several ways of doing it. Eliminate the source .
As far as magnets you could mount several of those super magnets on the tank underneath and turn the whole tank into a magnet

 

If they made a 90° filter with a magnet I would be all over that.

 

Add a magnet rare earth magnets to outsIde of filter.

 

Thanks for all the input guys!
