Water separator

[El Gaffer]

What water separator do you guys recommend?
I will be running a Johnson 150 and Johnson 9.9 2strokes. I plan to mix the fuel in the tank.
Thanks

Got mine right here from iboats. Sierra water fuel separator. Not worth buying a knock off when it comes to fuel systems. Sierra is well known at least. Im running a 75hp 2-stroke 80’s johnson.

Here are two kits here on Iboats that would do the trick

I personally got the Moeller Water/fuel separator kit, but don't see it here on Iboats. The two I listed are the same design but different brands.

Most outboard manufacturers recommend a min.10 micron filter. Yamaha recommends using a 5 micron filter.

Filters are are one place not to skimp.
If you have an existing OE filter head, Racor makes a screw-on replacement for both Mercury and Evinrude filter heads with or without the clear drain bowl. Racor S3213 (Evinrude)

If you don’t have a filter mounting head, buy and install a inexpensive head and install a Racor S3213 Marine Clear Bowl Fuel Filter.

I got a little work done. Water separator is mounted and got steering lines in.

Thanks SHSU, it's been a slow project. Here is a pic from a couple months ago. I scored that tower for $100, gonna make a shade canopy for it and rod holders. Pull the little ones around too, planning to hang my motor in next couple weeks. The old Shakespeare isn't cutting it

Electric only lake?

Did you replace the transom sheet with a new sheet of aluminum or did you just cover it with another?

It's for my paddleboard, a Kaku Voodoo, a great fishing platform.
I covered the old one. I wire wheeled it and used a tube of 5200.

That is professional looking work! Nice job.
