I have a VST with the external pump. Can the final filter be cleaned and reinstalled with the same seals?
It's the round filter housing right off the pump with center bolt.

By center bolt, you mean the WATER IN FUEL SENDER, on a Mercury. I don,t reccomend reuse, it is hard to get water out of bottom. Use new filter & fill with fresh fuel. lubricate o-ring before install. Also filter is thin metal, if you used anything besides hand, you may have small hole in filter. Mercury says only reuse in emergency.

Thanks, I mean by the VSTside, off the fuel pump goes into the round final fuel filter housing with center bolt , then into induction manifold. Not the spin on filter. Laser injection system. I post picture, don't know how?
