I removed my fuel heater element ( the thing with the wires hooked onto it) and I was wondering if i have to leave the bolt the held the pre heater in...it is the same size as the one that holds the bowl on with the pre filter...can I just leave the one taht held the heater element off and is it okay to leave the pre filter in...sorry newb here

 

leave the bolt off, screw the strainer back on, keep the pre filter for sure.
