Stock Fuel Filter

Top of the season to all,

Quick question, am I able to run without the stock fuel filter element in the canister on an 89.5?

I have a FASS but continue to use the stock setup for the WIF sensor and heater.

Cheers,

Taz

I don't see a problem with running fuel through the canister as long as you have other in line filters.

i'm sure it would be fine if you have other inline filters. but since the housing is sitting there - why not run one? you wouldn't have to change it nearly as often if the other filters are before the stock one . . .
