One boat builder had to pay big repair bills on many diesel engines because somebody installed the filter after the electric pump. Any water that entered the pump was pulverised and forced through the fuel filter. That caused rusting inside the injectors, the high pressure pumps etc. I'm using an oversize canister fuel filter (looks like a large oil filter) with drain on the bottom. It is in the lowest point of my system and gravity fed by 3/8" aluminum tubing. >Buly > > > > >
