Further to my post on fuel treatment, I have a question regarding aftermarket filter maintenance. The PO appears to have installed a Racor 200FF/ Element 2000SM fuel filter/water separator. I have no idea what I am supposed to do in terms of maintenance with this. Further, the unit lists an element component on the label, and I am assuming that it refers to a heating element on the filter unit. I cannot seem to trace any elec wires to the unit, only the inlet line from the tank and the outlet to the priming pump. As the picture shows there appears to be some crud in the bottom of the glass bowl.
If anyone has some product info on this filter or experience with it I would greatly appreciate it. Truck seems to be running fairly well, a bit smoky, but then again the only comparison I have is to a 64 VW split window...the complete opposite of my 79BJ40.
The other image is of an item located behind the dash on the pass side.
I am curious as to what it is.
