Less likely to clog? Debris in the fuel system will clog any carburetor.

Do you think it wise to put a fuel filter in the car. Funny , I guess originally these engines had no filter?

your 4 banger has a fuel pump, so yes, I would make up a temporary line with a clear filter just to see if there is any junk in there. If its clean and you don't like the look then put the original line back on
