I have an Andair Gascolator installed right before my two facet fuel
pumps. I believe it is 70 microns. It caught a lot of foam dust from
inside my wing tanks in the first 25 hours. I open and clean it out
every oil change (25 hrs). Never had a hiccup in my fuel system in 300
hrs.

I may have just survived on blind luck but 211LF flew for 800 hours with
only "finger screens" in the tanks and a gascolator between the pumps
(Facet) and the carb. One or both pumps ran for 100% of the time as no
engine driven pump and no gravity feed. Zach has put another 300 hours
on the airplane and he will have to decide if he feels any changes are
necessary. 211LF does have two parallel pumps so if one does fail the
second should get him to a safe landing.
