Well i checked in that place and there was now filter so i think that the fuel injection xciting the filter must be somewhere else.

Hmm Looking closer it looks like that manual is for the carb version... Sorry!

I checked the Yager and DT300i manuals and it seems they do not have a filter,
just a sock over the fuel pump as far as I can tell...

Well i have a problem when i stop on traffic lights the engine cuts off but not every time and i was thinking that the fuel filter could be dirty or something.

Well that would indicate it's going lean at low throttle settings. Have you tried the TPS recal routine?

From another thread
"Had a couple of hard starts, unexplained. Then yesterday and today had the idle go to 2600 rpm then slow down to about 1800, THEN start surging to 2600 rpm and back to 1800-2000 rpm. The fix was not the TPS (throttle position sensor) but to reset TPS and ISC (idle speed control or air bypass valve):

Key off, start-run switch on
Open throttle full and hold
Key on for 8 seconds
Close throttle
Key off

This initializes TPS and ISC and the problem went away. Normal idle 1650-1800 rpm and no surging. I don't know what the cause was other than guessing TPS "changed" a little with use."
