Hutch Mod?

While looking around for info on a coolant bypass filter I found Guzzles page. I noticed he had a article about a helper/lift pump. While reading this page I see he said something about having the Hutch mod and prepump filter and apparently it was causing the factory fuel pump to go out. Is this a problem people are often seeing with the Hutch mod?

Yes.
It clogges them up with sediment and there is no good way to clean them out.

OOOPs! Didnt quite explain myself. He had the prepump filter and if I was understanding it correctly that was causing the factory pumps to go bad. I'm guessing its because the pump is working harder to pull the fuel through the filter? Is that a common problem?
