Fuel Filter Placement

4K views 26 replies 13 participants last post by  Rockter 
Canada Shipping Act – TP1332E 7.7.1 and the US Code of Federal Regulations Title 33 183.590 requires every fuel filter or strainer shall meet the fire resistance requirements for fuel systems set forth in ABYC Standards for Small Craft H-24.5.7 unless the filter or strainer is inside the fuel tank. The Racor 500FG does not meet this standard. I know of no glass or plastic bowl filter without a heat shield that meets these standards.
