The filter goes right after the pump. This keeps debris out of the coolers.
Once a cooler is fouled, it cannot be cleaned no matter what anyone tells
you. I have two filters before the pressure side cooler and two after the
scavenge side coolers because they had been corrupted in earlier
applications. The filters down stream from the scavenge coolers always show
some metal years after the coolers were cleaned and put back into service.
