Racor filter size - Sailboat Owners Forums
网页1,204. Ericson 26-2 San Pedro, CA. Oct 23, 2023. #3. Tucson Sailor said: We have a 1996 Catalina 30 MKIII #6374 with 390 hours on the MX 25 engine. It has the Racor 26RS spin-on filter as the primary, then the engine mounted 2 micron filter followed by the facet filter at the fuel pump. I believe the 26RS is a 2 micron filter.

网页2009年11月8日 · Jun 9, 2010. #4. Don't shutoff the fuel intake to avoid getting air in the lines and allow for easier flow. Get a glass jar and place it under the bottom drain and open the valve. Water and muck will come out first and when you see clear fuel starting to come out shut the valve. Just clean up any spilage and you are done.

Drain/Change Fuel Filter - Racor 110A | Sailboat Owners Forums

I did this just in case of an issue with the fuel. The 120 is a little less expensive than some of the larger filters, but the elements are more expensive (go figure).
Fuel filter sizing - Sailboat Owners Forums
网页2019年11月12日 · I have a Yanmar 3GM30F with a Racor 220 fuel filter. The housing has a crack and I'm sizing a replacement. The 220 is rated at 30 GPH. Seems like overkill on an engine that burns about a gallon an hour. Engine space is limited and the Racor 230 (also rated at 30 GPH) is larger that the 220. Is a 15 GPH filter an acceptable replacement?
Proper Racor Primary Fuel Filter size? - Sailboat Owners Forums

RACOR FUEL FILTER - Sailboat Owners Forums
网页2004年2月4日 · Most engine filters are somewhere around 2 microns, so that means that if you put a 2 micron Racor filter very little if any gets passed through. It also means that it will clog up quicker than say a 10 or 30 micron filter.u000bu000bIf you had dirty fuel it you could go a lot longer on a 30 micron Racor than a 2 Micron.
