Where is the Fuel filter on a Volvo Penta 3.0GS?

[vert_04]

I have looked everywhere and can not find it. The part I was told to buy is a Soerra 18-7789. Looks just like a oil filter but can not find it on my 2001 Caravelle Volvo Penta 3.0GS. Any help would be awesome! Thanks

Your parts guy doesn't know much about 3.0L Volvos does he. The filters that look like oil filters are not standard on 3.0L engines. Not Volvo, not Mercruiser either. They should be, but they aren't.
The only filters a 3.0L has is one in the fuel pump.
Might be a good idea to install a water seperating fuel filter kit. It can save you a lot of money in repairs on a boat. Especially with the fuel we get today.

Sounds like you bought a water seperator and may not be on your boat.
