Just remember that plastic bowls permeate gasoline vapors and should not be placed in areas where gas vapors can accumulate. *The Coast Guard really frowns on this.

There is no need to filter below 10 microns for gas engines. Gas injectors and pumps are significantly less... precise than their diesel counterparts.

they recomend changing when the vacuum on the poutlet side gets too high( its a way to sell vacuum gauges and not be libal about change intervals) I'd have to agree on the once a year minimum, otherwise I'd figure once every 1000 gals? Keepa spare with you, never know when you might need it
