Hello all,
We have a 1993 Pacific Seacraft with 2003B Volvo Penta engine we purchased last fall. The fuel flow is: fuel tank, Racor 220 series water/fuel separator, Bellow electric priming pump, Volvo engine fuel pump, and Volvo engine fuel filter. We are going to change the filters on the water/fuel separator and the Volvo engine fuel filter.
The operator manual for the water/fuel separator tells us to bleed air from system using the priming pump.
The operator manual for the Volvo engine fuel filter tells us to bleed air from the system using the manual lever on the Volvo engine fuel pump.
I’m wondering if I should bleed the Racor water/fuel separator first or the Volvo engine fuel filter first? Does it matter?
