Very nice that a filter and fuel line are sent with the Evo 10 engine. Which direction does the fuel filter face and what is the piece of wire with a loop on one end for?
The filter should be installed with the 1/2 that has the male threads on it on the fuel tank side. This leaves the biggest area of the filter to act as a reservoir for crap to collect before clogging the entire thing. I'll see about embossing an arrow on these in the future.

The small piece of wire serves two functions. 1) it is a needle valve extension for those installed inside a cowl to make adjustments easier, and 2) it is the required 1.5mm diameter that we spec when resetting the low speed needle. You can use this tool as an insert into the carb barrel, close the barrel down on the wire and you have the 1.5mm gap we spec in the baseline settings for the lo speed needle.

Hope this helps!

Pete
