I've recently fitted one of these, and contrary to previous comments I'll be moving it out of my engine bay shortly, currently mounted between the pump and carb - I've secured this so it sits vertically with the little directional 'flow' arrow pointing upwards.
In the meantime, have I got a problem? I've notice that, after parking up, stopped and engine off, the fuel gradually empties, not entirely, out of the 'bulb' in the filter - I can see air bubbles going up through the 'bulb' and I can smell petrol, but that disappears quickly, there is no evidence of petrol leaking. When the engines running everything appears normal, runs sweet - good tickover, good pick-up, no missing or spluttering...any thoughts welcome.
I have recently had fitted a plumbed in fire extinguisher but don't particularly want to use it!
Cheers, Nigel
