That's your best shot? When I see someone with a CrapTrap filter installed back'ards I always ask how much fuel they have run through it. If the answer is in multiples of gallons I point out the error and then make every effort toward seeing them remove the filter and then reinstall it with filter oriented properly to fuel flow.

Thanks Randy,
Would it make a BIG difference if not? I figure it would still filter the fuel but maybe restrict flow somewhat??

Hi Dan

Seriously it needs to be put in right, The 2 filters inside are different screens,1 is very fine and needs to go after the first one, plus IF you put them in right, the debris is forced to the outside edge where it is trapped,leaving the middle clean to flow fuel, if not ,debris dirt etc.. it is forced into the middle where you do not want it to be
