So lets summarize this inline fuel filter install.

Greg likes actually being able to see if fuel is getting to the carburetor, not to mention being filtered, bonus!

The Greg discovers that he has a 3/8th hard line going to a union/coupling with a 5/16th nipple, then to a 5/16th rubber hose, then a 5/16ths filter then 5/16ths hose and 5/16ths swivel fitting

... this inconsistency bothers Greg.

Should he convert it all to 3/8ths or 5/16ths?
