With my 1973 Spider, I had to replace the fuel filter pretty regularly.
It eventually got where it would clog up almost immediately.  The long
term fix was to remove the tank and have the local radiator shop flush
it out and treat the interior (I'm not really sure what they use).
Since then, I'm back to replacing filter about once a year.  I usually
replace the rear filter and the main filter at the same time.  My fuel
light comes on as usual when starting but only for a second.
