What was it blocked with? White tank goo? Ethanol sludge?PhaZer_SWE1234 said:

In my bike the filter was NOT clogged, but the filter had sort of "vulcanized" due to heat.
There is no need for this filter if You are careful not to introduce any dirt when disconnecting the fuel-line connector (there is a special dirt-protecting plug to use if needed).
KTM has released a new type of filter (free of charge) for replacing the faulty original one.
I also dont think there is any problem with tank goo anymore since the transparent tank was invented ?

Ruger- Remove the fuel cap and slightly loosen the three screws evenly (maybe 1/4 turn). That should fix the tight fuel cap problem.

To those with 2011 bikes.. DO NOT rip your fuel system apart looking for an in line filter like I did. I read on here that the dealers started putting them in 2011 bikes.. this is not true.. a good dealer might install the comp map and rip off the air pump but no dealer is going to put in an inline filter.. I was so angry when I found no filter after reading "someone" post what he thought he knew about 2011 bikes having in line filters.. you have to be careful what you read on the forum or you might end up with a two hour mess on your hands like I did. My bike sputters after several hours riding and when HOT. I believe this is because when the fuel level in my tank gets too low, it is more vulnerable to the low amount of fuel getting HOT from the engine and exhaust. Soooo I keep a full tank of gas and NO PROBLEMS with fuel delivery. I will be putting heat resistant foil on the bottom of my tank and wrapping the fuel line in heat shield and then putting an akro slip on on the back to cool the header down a bit. I think this is all it will take to ride safely in the summer..
Peace hope this helps someone.

I installed the in-line filter, and about 4 days later my bike acted up. When I removed the filter I was surprised that it was not in the fuel rail - it was inside the hose. When I pulled the hose, the filter came out of the rail.
I installed a second filter and decided to remove it last night. Same thing. The filter was in the hose. So if you pull your hose off, be sure to look inside the hose, not just in the rail.
(not saying whether dealers install them or not - seems unlikely to me. just pointing out something I observed)

Ummmm .... so just how many filters do you have in your hose now, DeeG? Three? Four? MORE....??!!! :mrgreen:DeeG said:

It's my in tank filter after 1,000kms from new.

Oooof. That doesn't look so good.JRDoz said:
Hmmm ... but maybe that's how all filters start to look after a period of time ... but are still okay?

That would be zero.
I wasn't sure whether it was the in-line filter or the injector that caused my bike to run lean and hot a few months ago. I replaced the injector and it came with a new in-line filter, so I installed it in place of the first one. After reading about these in-line filters closing off when hot I decided to just remove it all together. Also, I no longer have the CanAm filter. More bother than it was worth (I hope). So now I am back to stock (but with a warranty replacement pump). I am hoping it will be rock solid now. I think most of my problems (except for the pump) where caused by me messing with the system due to forum induced panic on my part.
The mess on those in-line filters is sooo fine you can't really see through it, so it is hard to tell if it is plugged up without a microscope.
If that "someone" is me, please read what I wrote again:T_i_G_e_R said:
That doesnt mean that all -11's got the filter in them. They sold -11 before the filter were installed and they stopped installing them when the problem was known. So even if you dont have it in your bike doesnt mean that no -11 got it. Probably the big majority is without that filter, but some had it installed. I guess it also depend on the dealer.
My reason to write that in my earlier post was if a -11 owner experience the same problems as us with a -12 it can be a good reason to look for it.
I have a pdf from husaberg service announcement, but I cannot add it due I'm new too this forum.
But it says that they have a new type of filter, that has changed the screen filter size and gone from 10 my to 20 my in hole size, a new kit with this filter that comes in a set of three with parts number 781 41 013 244.
And should be changed every service.
the filesize is 1,8 Mb maybe thats why I cant upload it.
