I reckon you want the little bit with the filter connected to the tank, big bit connected to the carb. Screw it together before connecting the hoses, of couse.

With that style of filter it probably isn't hypercritical which way it goes.

As a guess I would say you should put the cap end on the tank hose and the main body to the carburettor as it looks like it would allow larger chunks of crap to settle without obstructing the gauze.

Something online said about allowing the filter to clapse in on itself without creating an opening.

As for the comment you quoted, i hope you have watched the third vid, so funny and applicable to my noob confusion. Esp with the end of it being about the punch.

In other words totally joking so hope you did not take it otherwise.

For the record, i'm not fitting it until someone says for absolute certainty which way it goes !!

Appropriate karma dispensed in this thread for filling a workshop thread with irrelevant drivel that (at best) belongs in random banter if not F&FW.

I response to the OP, I agree that the bit on the right should be nearest the tank for ease of cleaning and I also tend to keep them as near vertical as possible in case of air locks, although this is probably an irrelevance.

It won't make any difference to the actual function of the filter which way up it is though.

Incidentally, you'd have been cheaper and better with a disposable paper element filter like this:

Although less tarty. You can see through them so you can watch the fuel flow and see any dirt or water contamination. There is also a comparatively massive surface area for filtration. This type do need to be fitted the correct way round and usually have an arrow on them.
