That is strange. I have always bought them from the motorcycle shops in the US. They just have a bunch of inline filters in a drawer. Not sure what the difference could be. I never had one fail yet, usually just replace after a while just incase.

I get mine from a local power equipment place and like Buggin said, they had a drawer full of them. They’ve held up well. Little white plastic ones. Not see thru.

Marine stores have great ones. Or Visu-filter is a good brand.

Jets-r-us has some metal ones, but they r in the USA. www.jetsrus.com/parts/fuel_filters.html
I like when you can see the filter particle size rating, usually in microns.

I use Wix inline filters. Wix are a very reputable filter company. No leaks or discoloration so far.

Need one like my old Fergy tractor had. Glass bowl the fuel flows through & all the rubbish stays on the bottom to empty out as required.
