Boat owners, this fuel filter water separator is a must-have for keeping your outboard motor running smoothly! Specifically designed to replace Mercury part numbers S3227, 320R, 490R-RAC-01, 18-7948, 9-37882, 18-7922, and 18-7922-1, it's perfect for a wide range of marine engines. The 10-micron filtration screens out dirt, rust, and other nasty particles from your fuel before they can reach and damage your engine. Even more importantly, it removes 99% of water from your fuel - which is crucial because water in your fuel system can cause serious problems and expensive repairs. With a maximum flow rate of 90 GPH (340 LPH), it ensures your engine gets a steady supply of clean, dry fuel for optimal performance. The high-grade filter medium provides excellent filtration without restricting flow, and the anti-caustic housing stands up to harsh marine conditions. It features 1-inch-14 center threads and 3/8-inch-18 NPTF ports for easy installation. This isn't some cheap, flimsy filter - it's been rigorously tested with multi-layer filtration and superior sealing components to prevent leaks and ensure reliability. If you want to protect your marine investment and avoid fuel-related breakdowns on the water, this quality fuel filter water separator is absolutely essential maintenance. Your engine will run better, last longer, and you'll have way fewer headaches out on the water!
