Could an old fuel filter cause a hesitation? 700 1990

Folks, I just replaced the main fuel filter (the one under the car below the driver's seat). Judging from the degree of rust, it has been on there for a good fraction of the 335,000 km on the car. It was a Bosch filter so it must have been changed at least once. Prior to replacing the filter, the car drove well but did have a slight hesitation on takeoff - an ever so slight bogging. Since it is a stick shift B234F, it was easy to compensate. After the filter change, the hesitation seems to be gone.

Is it my imagination or is it really possible that the old filter had a sufficiently high pressure drop that it fooled up the mixture directly or threw off the computer so that the mixture was wrong?
