They are also useful for your drinking water filter - keeps most of the crud away and reduced any need to clean the fine filter. Simply wrap around the inlet and tie off with a rubber band. For fuel you'll need some sort of contraption to keep the filter in place.
All the inlet filters suffer from the same kind of problem - flow restriction. This means that the normal flow out of the petrol pump can be way too fast for them and they overflow. If they do handle the full flow then either they are physically big or they don't filter out fine contaminates.
I think the 'Mr Funnel' filter is the only one that gets rid of water. Used by diesel and aircraft people as they really don't want water.
