Glass Fuel filter

["John Fleming" <joflemin@nortelnetworks.com>]

My TR8 has a glass fuel filter.  Not sure how common these things are but
I've also seen one on an MGA.  You can see the filtering element inside and
you can take it apart and clean it.  
What's the story with these, are they any good?  Would it be better to
replace it with a more modern one?
Thanks
