    Most advise to run one befor and after of different microns. Just make sure the one you put befor is rated for pre pump and the flow, as well as the post pump is rated for the proper flow. I watched a guy burn up an expensive motor by putting what he "thought" was the right post filter on. The pump manufacturers usually sell the proper pre and post filters. Best to call them and get their recommendation.

    Pump starvation is usually the product of improper fuel feed to the pump/filter or return line causing airration in the cell.

    As advised I will run the pre and post filter. Better safe then sorry. Thank you everyone for the solid advise. I would have definatly done this wrong without.

    Also just another word to throw in...depending on what part of town you're at, The Parker Store on 14 Mile rd. east of Kelly rd. in Clinton Township carry all the fittings and lines, and are always instock. Richards Auto Parts at 23-Jefferson too. I'm sure others have parts as well, but these are where I'm familiar with. Good Luck.
