Inline fuel filter breaks ? Come on
I have a custom chopper. Resently i had a guy put a new air cleaner on it. When doing so he added a new gas line and reinstalled the inline clear fuel filter. After riding it a little whlie i felt moisture on my face when riding, din't think noting about it as cars air condition units often splash me with moisture.
After stopping at a store and shutting down engine, i had a flood of gas dumping out on the motor,trans and other places comming from the fuel filter. It broke right around the top where the metal meets the clear cylinder. A lot of gas dumped out before i could shut the tank off.
Anyone ever had this happen? I think not. I have not read anything in these forums about it.
Upon looking at the filter , it appears that it is in a bind and had presssure on it. I think it was the guys fault.
What do you think?
Any comments and or suggestions would greatly be accepted.
Thnaks in advance
