Default Fuel filter

I just installed a Team Titan Fuel filter and i don't know if i put it right. I mean, most fuel filters have a correct way to install (which is the input and which the output). Is that fuel filter has its correct way to install? How to i recognise the input and the output?

Iblow directly through the filter, trying both openings, and see if one side flows more than the other....the side that is easier to blow into is the side I attach the line from the tank.

Thats a good idea!!!
I might have mine on back wards because i had so much trouble telling which way it should go.
If you put it on backwards could you run the risk or running the engine too lean and damaging it since the flow is restricted since it was back wards???

stone element filters are directional. screen ones are not.

you dotn really need an additional filter beyond increasing fuel capacity.
