Strange...... I have a '13 Boss Mustang and even that has a strainer on the fuel pump and inline filter, no return line. From what I can gather the Lucerne filter is an integral part of the fuel pump, so the fuel pump needs to be removed to check, nothing separate, so......

LoL, just remembered when I had my '79 Dodge 'LiL Red Express Truck. Not paying attention and put fuel filter in backwards. Truck (360cid/4v) ran fine untill passing somebody and engine would stall and sputter, had to let off of gas pedal to keep motor running. Easy fix and I knew better.
