I think we have all experienced flame outs after refueling at some point in our careers. I did experience a string of flame outs with my WS7III this past fall. Would fuel filter do the same thing?

Honestly I think you would be better trying some extra fuel tubing on the pressure line and loop it around (try for a good 8 inches or so). With a chamber in there you have something that can come loose or develop a leak. Also the biggest reason these engines flame out after being fueled is your LSN is a bit too rich. You can also try running a #5 plug instead of a #6.
