Question What comes first fuel pump or filter after gas tank, Off topic dune buggy with VID

hi, i know this is offi topic but you guys always are there for my auto help

i have a dune buggy that isnt getting fuel, the fuel pump suction feels week as hell

im just wondering if the people who made the dune buggy put the pump and filter on backwards

currently the setup is gas tank, fuel filter then fuel pump

i even installed a bulb primer to try and get it to suck

so what is the correct setup

heres a you tube vid of it

i really want to know if the filter and pump are setup right

There's a pickup screen ahead of the fuel pump in the tank. Then it's pump and fuel filter.
