those are great filters, get the 5/16" filter. Use only with a carb, not FI

I bought one to use with the car as a pre-filter... did not put it on because it would have reduced flow to the pump.

Glad to see the comment from Mark to only use it on carb cars... I will put it away in a safe place :)

Both cars have carbs? If not the 80, where did you installed it?

Wachuko, some of the '80s came with a carb. Either the early '80s or the non-California Spiders had carbs; and the later '80s or California models came with FI.

If your computer does not have injection, you could use such a filter on your computer. Works great to keep bugs away ! :roll:
