Q about 300R fuel / water separator.
In the Mercury manual it mentions a "boat mounted" fuel-water separator.
Is anyone using a Racor type filter? And if yes... a 2-micron or 10-micron?\\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\/// \\\///

Yes, I have one and I also got rid of the primer bulb after I did the initial start up. It fires instantly with the big lift pump. 10 micron filter-

Yes I thought if they mentioned it in the owner's manual without any warnings like for the Opti I should have one. I got a few of those in the barn, gives me a project for the afternoon.

If you have one with the WIF sensor I’d recommend it, as there’s a harness and input for it so you get the warning if water is present.
A problem is only a problem when viewed as a problem...

Biggest choke point in most fuel systems is the anti siphon pc in the fuel pickup. Filter is nothing compared to that one. Put a vac ga on your fuel line, and check it.
