My m4-30 has 2 inline fuel filters, one with a water collection bowl, the other a finer canister style filter (2 micron rings a bell) ...remember to close the fuel valve from the tank before removing the filters, it can be a messy job, and you will need to bleed the fuel system of entrapped air after installing the new filters...the owners manual describes it well
