On my 1991, 3.0 liter mercruiser, I was looking at part # GLM77115 on ebasic power -- says this is the replacement fuel pump that I need. It says in the description that it is a new style Carter Pump with the filter on the bottom of the pump.
I had no idea that there was a fuel filter in the bottom of the fuel pump. Does this thing get clogged? I'm wondering if this could be why my fuel pump has been acting funny and sometimes stops pumping gas.
Anyone have any experience with these things? I was going to just replace it, but maybe there is something else to it.
(by the way, sometimes my carb does get gas at low rpm's. I know that the typical failure of fuel pumps is at higher rpms, but I've changed the the water separator and the fuel isn't making it to the inline fuel filter, so I'm thinking it is the pump)
