I've seen some small fuel filters that can be added to my Honda HRX. I think it would be of value. Does anyone use one, and which one? If it's not worth the small cost and effort, let me know your thoughts. Thank you.

Yes put one on. Everything should have a filter.

Most all commercial mowers, even the commercial push mowers all come with a fuel shut off and gas filter if that tells you anything. It would be worth the cost to install one.

Most Honda's mowers already have a filter ("fuel strainer"); just pull one clip and it is inline with the outflow fitting at the bottom of the fuel tank. Remove and clean or replace as necessary...

Those strainers are a pita.... I remove them and use an inline filter much easier
