Hi Jeff N:
Recommend you get another DAR. Seems this one has a lot of ideas of his own he wants to make mandatory.
Fuel filter bypass. Never heard of such. If filter plugs from contaminated fuel, no filter would certainly stop the engine.
You are right about the ELT. Single place does not require one.
PLB (Personal Locator Beach) is a good option for an ELT, especially if you participate in more than flying. I just bought an ACR Micro Fix 406 with internal GPS. I will use it for flying, dirt biking, boating, mountain biking, and off roading the 4WD pickup. It is registered with my info at NOAA, SAR SAT (Search and Rescue Satelite). Fits in my pocket, the pocket on the back of my airplane seat, strapped to my Camel Back harness or my belt. Not cheap, but darn good insurance. Much more effective than the old 121.5 ELT.

I am in the process of getting my Firestar KXP certified and my DAR hasa told me that I need to have an alternate path arround my fuel filter so I can buypass if needed. I have seen this for the Primer bulb but not for the fuel filter. Does anyone have this in their fuel system? He also siad I needed an ELT but I found in the regs I do not for a single seat.
Thank You
