I'm just saying, of all of around 30 gbodies I've worked on from 78 to 88, Montes, Regals, GPs, and cutlass's, no malibus or 4 doors yet, all had an inline fuel filter under the car. It may just have been coincidence, or a trend going around the service stations to install one, but every one I've seen, including my car, has one. What else would be in the fuel line that looks like a small soda can under the car in the frame rail, with one line in and one line out?
Aside from the slight highjacking, if this thread is still open next time I get to my car, I'll take a pic. It's in the fuel line, I have no idea what it could be. And before you ask, my car is in my backyard sinking in mud.
Is it that hard to believe that over the 4 or so years I've been seriously messing with cars, going to junkyards, and hanging around family friend owned exhaust shops (that also raced gbodies in demo derbys and hobby stock) that I've seen my fair share of g's? Hell, my dad had a GP, my neighbor has a Monte carlo with the roof cut off (poor car), my grandpa raced hobby stock before he switched to thunder cars, my uncle had many many malibus and elcaminos, and eventually my dad's GP... Plus the dozen or so cars I free lance worked on, I suppose that's the right term, doing random nitpicky stuff like retiming, replacing fuel pumps, gaskets, carb rebuilds and swaps, etc. It may just be happen stance that the filters were added after the cars were built, but nearly every one had one under the car.
