The pump pulls the fuel out of the top of the tank, thus there is no way to orient the filter so the vapor/air will move back to the tank on it's own. I really hadn't thought about it being fuel vapor--I guess the low pressure caused by the suction in the line causes it to vaporize. Since the manufacturer had the filter between the tank and pump and it is working I'll leave it there. It just looks so weird. You can see the fuel in the filter on the outlet side of the paper and tell that's basically full but there is 0 liquid fuel on the inlet side of the paper element. The setup is a bit funny in that it uses 1/4 fuel line from the tank to the filter and 5/16 from the filter to the pump. Then 1/4 from the pump to the carb. Since that was how I found it that's what I put back there.
The filter on it when I got it was so bad it might as well have been made of black plastic--so I don't know if it always worked like this or not.
