Hi Kev,
45,000 is a long time in fuel filter clogs. I got tired of changing and cleaning mine every 10,000 or so. I've now cut out the bottom screen from inside the filter, and removed the internal paper filter from the pump alltogether. I have replaced the fuel lines as the guys said above, and always am extremely careful to not kink the lines after lifting the tank. I have also installed a small inline filter that is very cheap to replace at every service, and check/clean the top screen on the pump(you can get to it in situ.) It is still a bit of a pig sometimes on a really hot day in traffic, but it never stops on me ANYMORE!
hope this helps ,
cheers,
