It appears whatever is plugging the filters is not the conventional sort 

of debris and furthermore is a similar color to the filter media thus 

making it difficult to determine whether contamination exists.   This 

suggests a couple of remedies.

One is to replace filters on a strict time basis such as Jeff reported 

with Baby Blue.  Discard at 1 hr, 5hr, 25hr, and every 50hr 

thereafter-perhaps at every oil change.  The bothersome thing is they 

can be clogged with no visual evidence apparent.

In addition, a  fuel suction gauge fitted between the filter and 

electric pump will give an indication of filter restriction long before 

it is apparent on the fuel pressure gauge.
