Hey,

Winterizing my boat for the first time.

It is a 2004 3.0l Mercruiser Alpha I - I have completed all the steps with the exception of one - I can not find the water separation filter on the engine, do all engines have this filter? Does anyone know where it is located on this engine?

Thks.

Re: Water Filter

The 3.0L engines do Not have a water seperating fuel filter as standard equipment. If there is one installed by either the boat dealer or a previous owner, it could be anywhere. Just follow the fuel hose from the tank to the fuel pump. It would have to be in that line somewhere.

Re: Water Filter

If it doesn't have one you can install one just before the fuel pump not after it.
