[Gmecm] In-line fuel pumps with TBI

Right now I just have a generic plastic purolator filter.  What kind of
coarse filter are you talking about?

I guess I wasn't considering that there was any considerable restriction in
the filter.  The thing about the filter though, is that it's kind of big and
always has air in it, which might cause trouble for a non-self priming pump.

I ordered a Carter P5001, hopefully it will work better.  Having to siphon
gas from the tank to get it primed is not acceptable to me.  I just don't
understand why it worked before and doesn't anymore (since I replaced the
tank).

I've seen a very coarse filter (blocks big stuff) to protect the pump, then
a fine filter after the pump.
