I recently acquired a 1970 Midget 1275 GAN5 UA 80136 G. Garaged and not run since 1991. First order of business was to drop fuel tank, blow out lines, check floats and needle valves. Rubber fuel lines rotted so I replaced (temporary). Tank to be reworked this week. Fuel pump has been replaced by prior owner's mechanic and was relocated to the front of the bulkhead exterior from it's original position on the rear of the bulkhead exterior. Why I cannot begin to guess. I cannot find any sign of a fuel filter, I even looked in the Haynes manual. I have 3 questions
(1) Can any rubber hose be used for the rubber portions of the fuel lines.
(2) Is it advisable to return the fuel pump to it's original position.
(3) What is the best location and type for a in-line fuel filter. Or what is the location of the factory filter. (in case I am stupid and there really is one)
