Fuel Filter

Fuel Filter
Does my new (to me) '88 truly not have a fuel filter or is it hidden somewhere. It has a mechanical fuel pump and is a 998. I'm about to put in (from scratch) a fuel filter but I was worried that there might be a very dirty fuel filter hidden somewhere that I should replace instead. I've been have stalling problems so I'm ruling out possibilities - bad/dirty gas, clogged fuel filter (if there's even one), and finally, bad fuel pump. Thank you for any input you may have.

I've had my car for 14 years .. standard mechanical pump on a 1275 with HIS-6/HIF-44 carb
no fuel filter
never had a problem
know where you buy your fuel
if you doubt the quality of your tank, clean and seal it or replace .... ditto for fuel lines ... if in doubt renew.
no harm in adding one, but not a must do IMO/IME
your lawn mower carb has a higher probability of getting clogged from bad fuel
