Yeah, tell him to get one. It's not that expensive.

damage has already been done if its bogging/hesitating. injectors are probably already clogged. tell him to flush his injectors, and buy a fuel filter.. why would you not run one??

because yours exploded and you stuck in the hood, or your a dumbass. i think those are the only 2 acceptable reasons.

Yeah, fuel filter is pretty cheap, however knowing how the fuel filter is setup on that car I can't help but think someone hacked up the hard feed line and and the rubber line from the filter to the fuel rail in order to run without a filter.
