With a "pencil" filter, you won't get flakes in the "dirty leg" & it prevents flakes from plugging up or scoring the fuel valve, like Tom W. said.
When you order the "pencil" filter, buy a dozen & give them to your friends. I know friends that have really FLAKEY tanks & with that filter, NEVER have a problem! With it, & a standard sediment bowl & the filter in the top of the Zenith, you'll be set for TROUBLE FREE miles.
OH, I found out that the "pencil" filter DOESN'T restrict the flow, on Minerva, with 1/2 tank of gas, it would flow a 6" stream of gas from the disconnected gas line at the carb!
