Folks,
A chap at my RC field suggested that I place fuel line filters between the tank and the engine and the muffler output and the tank. He said that this will prevent 'stuff' from getting into the engine.
See the following for example:

Well, I added a couple of these between the muffler and tank and engine intake and tank. Now I am having second thoughts. Here is my thinking.
* I have added 4 new 'separation' points where the fuel tubing can come loose from the system
* I have impeded the unrestricted flow of fuel and air pressure by pushing through a mesh
* I have some 'pieces of metal' now behind the prop/engine that must be getting rattled around something fierce.
So .. my question ... are y'all using these things? How many of us actually put fuel filters inline? Are they worth it? Any problems or saves caused by using these?
