A bit off topic, but related as long as we are talking about clogged Racors.
When I installed a Racor 500 on my boat last year, I added an Across Ocean
Systems (AOS) fuel pressure sensor on the intake line between the Racor and the
tank. It sends the data to my Raymarine chartplotter over
Aside from replacing the Racor filter regularly, I think it’s a good idea to
drain the bowl when you change the filter.
I usually change this filter yearly when I change the fuel filters on my Beta
28.But it is possible for gunk to build up in the bowl which is mostly
transparent but can cause
We did have fun.
My boys are still using Corsair on occasion. But keeping it to sail twice a
year is a bit nuts.

David,
We had many of good battles with Corsair when I sailed on Zoomer, another great
C 40. I miss those days. Looking back, it was 15 years since we did our

Dennis,
I didn't know there was a check valve in the filter.

the filters. I have not noticed the gauge acting strange. But then I don't
look at it often. You might try relocating the gauge.
I would think that once the engine
