Probably depends on the tank - on the one I just took out of my 84, original
as far as I know, the outlet and return were the same. On the one I bought,
that was from an 85, as far as i know, the outlet was bigger than the
return - the outlet was the same size as the fuel pump inlet, which meant I
had to take out the square plastic fuel filter.

Is there a fuel filter that will work in this setup? i.e., has the larger
diameter inlet AND outlet? The one I removed had a small inlet and large
outlet.

cheers,
 Jeff
