Does your fuel system include a Racor fuel filter/water separator?

Those are the ones I got rust holes in. So please do keep up the yearly replacement. Also note you can dump them out into a bucket to get water out of them.

Why Racor 320R?
Hi Folks,
I don't have a water seperator, but I am looking to add one. The Racor 320R seems to be recommended here, and elsewhere, for the A4. I am curious as to why. Racor lists this model as having a capactiy of 60gph. The 120R model seems to be very similar, but smaller (for a tight engine compartment)and have a capacity of 30gph. Surely it can't be a capacity issue, considering the A4 burns about 1gph? Are there other differences that make the 320R a better fit for the A4?
Thanks,
Tim Young

Not a racor, but the venerable Perko 299. I was cleaning my unit and replacing the plug on the bottom with an easy to use valve (with cap). Should make checking the fuel a snap.
I suppose that someday I won't be able to find filter elements and will have to consider a change, but in the meantime....Mike

You can blow those elements out with an air compressor if memory serves. It is a bronze mesh.
