Glass fuel filter
I was told this
"For safety sake, I would ditch the glass gas filter and go with an inline aluminum one. It would suck if you threw a fan belt and busted that open." True? Did I make a stupid decision going for the glass one and did I compromise my safety?

PLUS the 10 dollar glass filters do not screen out all the crap in the tank and such and sediment will clog up your carb and leave you stranded and flooding out and what ever else.
I liked them too until I dealt with that..

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
