I just replaced my fuel filters on my 340 DA. ($$$) I have two(2) questions
1. I have seen the filters on the web for $ 20 a set, has any one used these?are they any good? if so, can you tell me what ones that you purchased?
2. Can I just install a remote spin on water separating filter to the cool fuel module and not use the filter in the can? leaving the lower one only.
 
I'm using those cheap filters and the only drawback I've noticed is that the cup is not a super tight fit against the bore.
 
Why is there only a strainer rather than a fuel filter like on my other sea 280? that had filters , and has anyone installed water separators
 
I'm pretty sure you can't add a spin on into the system. I don't think the fuel pump can handle it. I also buy my filters on Amazon and have been changing them often. I think the fuel is just dirty and the filters are showing it.
