Find a spot to put in a $3 Fram inline fuel filter from Wally in there until you can get your filter setup resolved. You have no real filtration to speak of otherwise and if your pump is shedding metal, watch out. Or, you can run it for a week and be fine if you have good fuel and the pump is fine.

I'd think for piece of mind, put that in-line filter in so if the pump pukes it will clog the cheap filter. But be aware. Our trucks will chug along with 0 fuel pressure. I experimented with a switch at the pump for theft protection. One time I forgot to flip the switch "on" and I chugged around with me wondering what the he11. So the point is if it chugs, the filter is plugged.

Ron, that is what I have been running for years before my pump due to the sump eliminating the lame stuff in the tank. I wasn't about to go straight to my pump without filtration from the tank despite knowing my tank was spotless when I sumped it. It will flow what you need until you get it fixed.

Edit

Good point Ron. I don't see it blowing apart though for the short duration we are talking about. It is a new element that is designed to flow fuel. That PSI will be spread across the entire element. I don't see a problem.

Put it on your compressor and see. Air is a fluid, pressure is pressure.

You dont owe me anything. Remember the Wastegate actuator you sent me?
If you dont need it, put it on your shelf, and whenever someone asks, pay it forward. The only thing its done in my shop for the past year or so, is collect dust, and Ive used it to take some posting pics. Being this far south I KNOW I dont need the FB heater, but up there, you will. The only gelling we have down here happens when Bill Cosby starts pimpin Jello.
