Been trying to figure out how to add a fuel filter from amazon.com. i really dont wanna splice the fuel line bjt it may be the only option. So here is my question by adding a fuel filter... i know i will need to crimp the line and cut it to add the fuel filter. But do i need to add pressure couplings to the ends of the hoses where the fuel filter is going? Also... by adding a new air filter other than the stock air filter,will there be any noticeable gain in rpms at all or not? Was also looking at a carborator that has bigger jets in it than the stock has. Will i need a bigger exhaust to compensate for more exhaust or will it be fine?

First there already should be a FUEL FILTER either between the petcock and the carb or between the tank and the petcock. So I do not understand why you have to cut anything.

Also adding a air filter is not going to do anything for your rpms. Also you do not need a new carb you can buy just the jets and change them in your current carb.

But to straighten you out take some pictures of the carb area and the fuel hose from your tank to the carb. Need to see what is on there.

Take some wire cutters, cut the fuel line, stick the fuel filter in each end of the line you just cut and make sure the filter is pointing the right way. Put a small zip tie on each side of the filter...boom...you're done.
