    E32-3 Fuel System Refit with a Racor 500

    Intro When I started thinking about the fuel system on Rumour, I realized there were a few things to consider. I heard a number of recommendations to remove the old metal fuel supply lines and check or replace the old Racor 200 series primary fuel filter/water separator assembly. Both are...

    Installing a new Racor 500 on an E32

    Refitting the fuel supply system on Rumour this weekend and trying to figure out how to mount the new Racor 500 in the same location as the old Racor 220R -- behind the engine just below the sliding board in the aft quarter-berth. Here's the current layout of primary filter and pump: Curious...

    Racor Fuel Filter Plugs?

    Our E32 with an M25 Universal has a Racor Fuel Filter with a 2 micron R24S element. The top of the filter has 3 white plugs/knobs. I have never disturbed them and just changed the R24S element regularily. But these plugs/knobs must have a purpose. Can someone please educate me on the porpose of...

    Racor Water Seperator Filter Cartridge

    My local marine supply store is no longer stocking Racor R24S filters because "my diesel guy says the 2 micron filter is causing fuel starvation problems." The store is only offering the 10 micron filters. I've been using only 2 micron filters since forever on my 25XP. What say you? Shall...

    Racor 120-Series Fuel Filter/Water Separator

    Good morning all. I have a Racor 120 fuel filter in the engine compartment and it is the model that has the dual NPT inlets and outlets. Only one of the inlet/outlet pairs are used and the other pair is blocked with the plastic plugs that I assume came with the unit when it was new. The...

    Replacement for Racor 220

    I have an 88 E28 with a M12 Universal. Would like to replace the old Racor 220 unit. The Racor 120AS with 10 micron filter was recommended. Any comments.

    Racor 220 fuel filter

    When changing out the rancor 220 fuel filter / separator element is it necessary to fill the filter unit/ sediment bowel with diesel before trying to bleed the system of air? My lift pump has no pump lever and I believe when the ignition is turned to on it activates the pump on my 1989 M-30...

    Racor Fuel Water Separator

    I have a Racor 220 fuel water separator on my 1988 E-38, supporting my Universal M-40. Unfortunately the bowl has a hairline crack that is pulling air into the fuel system -- I can see the stream of bubbles. A direct replacement for the bowl (RK20135) is $85.15 - for a piece of plastic! And...

    Racor filter application

    My M-25 block mounted fuel filter has a broken bracket. Rather than replacing it with another that will break again, I am thinking of a Racor. The question is, which one? W M, Marine Diesel Direct & Defender on-line don't really address the appication. :confused: Which Racor is appropriate for...

    Racor filter info request

    I have a factory installation of a 220 series Racor filter for the Universal M25XP diesel engine. I just changed the filters, both the engine spin-on and the Racor. While the instructions printed on the side of the R24S replacement filter are OK, it would be nice to have a copy of the original...
