during a track session I had fuel starvation to a point where the car stalled on the track and restarted after 10 minutes. The car is running well on the street.

I removed the fuel pump assembly (which is in a good shape) and then removed the fuel filter which is totally clogged (the car has 125,000 km on bad Ontario gas).

The dealer wouldn't sell the filter separately.
My thinking is to remove this filter and install an inline fuel filter instead.

1. Does it make sense?
2. If so, what will be the optimal location for it?

Or is there a place where I can get a replacement fuel filter, may be from some other model?
