Seems like a lot of $$$ for a little in-line filter, but I'm confident it'll work. Auto parts stores carry lots of similar filters for 2 or 3 dollars$....just whatever makes you feel good!

I can get that Quicksilver fuel filter at Ace Hardware for $7. I'm just wondering if that'll work well with my 8hp Merc. It's a cost thing. The fuel filter designed for my merc is $19... found at the link below... but I'm wondering if the $7 Quicksilver one will work just as fine.
