Hi Mathew, So you have two electric fuel pumps to maintain? I may be wrong, but I remember reading somewhere that the Racor water separator requires a vacuum for the design to work, to through moisture droplets out against the outer shell. It is to be installed on the suction side of a lift p

Now that you have removed and re-installed your tank, maybe you could try turning off the electric pump and see if it works without it. Bill Coleman Entrada, Erie, PA From: Matthew [mailto:wolf...@erie.net] Sent: Tuesday, October 06, 2020 2:44 PM To: 'Stus-List' Subject: Stus-Li

The engine-mounted fuel pump on my Westerbeke pulls fuel from the tank, through a Racor, then to the engine. Shortly after I bought the boat, I experienced problems with air getting into the line. We couldn’t figure out where, so we installed an electric pump between the tank and the Racor, so

Compression fittings aren’t horrible if they were installed correctly with brass or plastic inserts to support the flexible hose. The vacuum on that fuel line is relatively low, less than 8 lbs, so they would have to be snug. The fittings on the tank valve are likely the same. If it takes you m

One way is to replace all your hose, making sure you have good connections. This would probably eliminate the source of air intake. Also, you need to get rid of that hardware-style vinyl water hose, that has no place in a fuel system. Get some good USCG approved fuel hose. SAE- J1527 221FR-
