Working on fuel tank installation {M38A1} and the pick-up has a push connection for the fuel line...I think.

In order for the line to seal, {flare} does it have to be a specific diameter? I would like to run 1/4" line to lessen any back flow into the tank.

Found out it isn't a push connection {video} but flared and thread in sleeve...what type filter is connected to other connection point on the pick-up?

The in-tank filter was some kind of porous cylinder that is no longer available. Suggest eliminate it and install a commercial in-line filter before the fuel pump.
