Let’s talk Fuel Filters

[pappawheely]

If you are running a fuel water separator with gasoline make sure you have a steel bowl. The clear plastic bowls will be fine for diesel, but gasoline will destroy them.

Decades ago the go-to was an inline filter with a fine mesh element and a glass cylinder. You could unscrew the two ends of the filter body and clear it out. And you could see any crud building up in the filter.
They're still commonly available today, and inexpensive.

I still use these on my gasoline 4-cylinder.
