I have heard that the see through filters can vapor lock really easily.

Subject: [TR] See through fuel filters
FWIW. B Over the course of a few years I was having intermittent issues with
the TR8 acting like it was running out of gas. B Pull over and wait a minute
and it would fire up and run for a week or months until it would happen again.
Replaced the fuel pump, nothing. Replaced the wiring to the fuel pump thinking
it might be a ground issue, nothing. B Then recalled somebody saying they had
issues with a see through filter and also somebody having issued with the
inexpensive after market B fuel pressure regulators, the chrome looking ones
with the round dial on the face. The TR8 had both of these installed. B I
replaced both of them at the start of the driving season this year and (knock
on wood) it has not missed a beat since.
