I'm thinking to install a Professional Products canister type fuel filter
(see Baker precision web page http://www.bakerprecision.com/wix4.htm ).
Anybody familiar with these?

I'm feeding my FI system from a sump tank that has a sample drain, and could
probably hold close to a quart of 'stuff' before it would get picked up by
the pump.   I have seen/heard recommendations to put the filter ahead of the
pump, and after the pump.  Which is the way to go and why?

Comments appreciated.

I had debre get in a mechanical fuel injection pump on a Mooney causing 
the engine to quit. Fortunately I was able to glide to an airport.
