Petrol/water separator... again
      #1884670 - 06/06/2008 07:07

I'd have thought that this has bee done to death but alas the search didn't yeald much...

Doolittle does less than little and I frequently accumulate a lot of water in the tank. Can anyone recommend a good separator? I would really like a big Pirex bowl with drain if poss.

Thanks

IIRC, the last time I read the BSS gumph, you were'nt allowed to have a glass bowl on the fuel filter on a petrol engine. One of the reasons that my boat has never been registered for the Thames. It would just cost too much to make it comply.

Though things may have changed by now and I sure someone will correct if wrong.
