why use a motorcycle's petrol filter and not the car's original filter? Motorcycle's petrol filter is way too small to be used for car... if car's original filter cannot be found then mod iswara or even a wira's petrol filter for ur car...

:D :D our petrol is not that dirty until need to use double filter. Besides, if u really want to use double filter, use back ur car's original filter. Motorcycle's petrol filter is too small, just think of bomba high pressure water pipes but using small tap, so water come out also too small. My recommendation, just stick back with using single filter. Some more ur car is carburetor car, so u dun need to worry too much on dirty petrol clogging up things like fuel injector.

I think u should remove the motorcycle filter. Stick with the single filter. Have you serviced the carb recently. Try using the Card cleaner additive. Add it in your fuel tank. It should help remove and dirt in the card jets.

Cheers :)

Dear Readers, It is my pleasure to announce that we'll embark ourselves on a crazy journey. Follow closely every week on our step by step progress, involving in house modifications or DIY to our Supercar beater testbed.

We bought ourselves a cheap wreck, a 1983 Nissan Fairlady 300ZX Z31 for RM10,000. Why do we choose the Nissan over any other cars? Well here's the main reason:

Why the Z31? Why this...
