FPR screen

ok so i know a dirty screen is bad. however what will a dirty filter do ? most of my searching comes up to mpg threads. will it cause poor idle ? poor throttle responce ?

yeah it might have a funny idle, it will cut out up top if you really in it, poor mileage. if you doubt it dont think twice just go do it, there 16$ i think?

That little screen can give better throttle response from my understanding.

When I cleaned mine, I never realy noticed anything different but happy knowing its clean. I should do mine again since my injector o-rings have failed and been replaced.

Definitely better throttle response with it clean. The idle, it did seem a little smoother. I just cleaned mine last week, otherwise I'd probably have forgotten.
