Mr. Gasket 9748 3/8 Clear View Fuel Filter

I bought 2 of these to use in my hovercraft. I like them because they are easy to mount in a rubber aircraft style hose clamp and easy to disassemble and clean. But the 3/8 size is somewhat misleading. Yes its the ID of the barbed ends. However the hole in the barb is only 1/4. I had to take them apart and progressively drill the inlet and outlets larger, a few mm each time. There is enough metal there.

I bought this filter to use on my wife's motorcycle. I had previously purchased the one with the multi-sized adapters as I wasn't exactly sure of the fuel line size on her bike. That was my first mistake as two of the adapters (both plastic) sheared-off when I tightened them into the filter body. That one went right in the trash.So I decided to try the one with the built-in nipples. The build quality is fine and I like the design, but I just could not stop this thing from leaking, no matter what I did. It leaked from both ends at the fuel line joints. No matter what I did I could not stop the joints from leaking. I tried everything from safety wire to pipe clamps to other types of clips to no avail.Eventually I just got so frustrated with it, it went in the trash and I replaced the whole thing with a new fuel line and a new filter that went inside the tank!My other beef with this product is it did not come with the 4 chrome hose clips or the two pieces of hose it claims to come with in the product description and photo. I should have demanded a refund but for $15 I figured it just wasn't worth the hassle.

This is not really a 3/8" filter. The outlets are the same as a smaller sized filter. I compared it to my old 3/8" filter and the hole size is smaller, the same as a 5/16" filter.

Ok for a lawnmower or small atv.

Nice filter but be sure to check tightness to prevent fuel leaks.

Barb end was not manufactured correctly, did not even need to open package to see the error.

This did not come with the 4 hose clamps and short pieces of rubber hose as stated in the item description.

Its glass.

Assume good quality from a recognized manufacturer.
