Sorry, no picture. Bowl Assembly in a line. Aligned with "IN" and "OUT" as the N/S poles, "OUT" would be printed upside-down and be NORTH; "IN" would be right-side up and be SOUTH; 1/4 tall embossed "AC" in the center; NE quadrant has "MADE IN U.S.A."; NW quad has "PAT. NOS."; SW has "1,705,042"; SE has "2,159,196". Glass bowl has "A" and "C". Filter missing. Appears to be 5/16" fine IN and OUT holes. What is it? Thanks.

Re: AC Fuel Filter - ID
Loren, Without doing a lot of checking you seem to be describing the 56-57 dome AC Gasoline Strainer Assembly. Not sure if the 5/16 fine IN and OUT holes are OK. Have info somewhere. -
Re: AC Fuel Filter - ID
Loren,
Here is a pic of some filters. Is this what you are describing?

Re: AC Fuel Filter - ID
Joe, after conceding your status as a "hoarder", yes. I guess I'm wondering whether Mark's patent info provides a clue, as well as the 5/16" vs. 3/8" lines. Trying to find out for a friend who "risked" $5 at a garage sale............. Thanks.Comment

Joe,
That filter is identical to the fuel filter on my 1924 Chevy! Want to let go of one of them? LOL you shouldn't miss one!

Re: AC Fuel Filter - ID

Re: AC Fuel Filter - ID
Still having a little problem with your described 5/16 fine IN/OUT holes. You are correct re: early 56 5/16 fuel line however if that fuel filter with 5/16 holes was used, by adding the brass fitting to attach that line it would seem the fuel restriction would become even greater.Comment
