"Being caught in heavy seas and doing a lot of bobbing around I seem to have got my tiny inline fuel filter plugged, because my nice running 5 HP 4-stroke quit running all of a sudden. I could start it but when shifting into gear she would quit. Finaly I removed the little fuel filter blew through it backwards, ( felt a slight resistance ) put back in, and then motor ran ok again. Question is there is a longer larger filter made,( (Serra brand )... Why can't I replace the little filter with this larger one ? Any reason not to?
