Rick,
I am interested in the spin-on filter for my main engine. Would you please
give me the contact information.
Another solution to the secondary (downstream, on the engine) filter change
problem is to have the primary (Racor, etc.) the same micron rating as the
one on the engine. That way the Racor, which can be mounted in an easy place
to get to, will catch all the debris and the secondary on the engine rarely
changed or changed routinely once a year.
Also, an electric fuel pump makes priming any fuel system a snap (as in
"snap" on the switch, wait a couple of minutes, start engine).
