Pre-Pump Separator

DEEZUZ · Jun 14, 2012

Wanting to drop the tank soon so do all the hutch and harpoon mods. I also wanted to add another fuel filter/separator. Will this one work? It says for vaccum side only. I dont want to burn up the stock pump and put any strain on it....

I plan on stock pump for awhile, will this put extra strain on it?

My stock pump has been running in this system for 2 years now.

And there is 140k on my pump. You should be fine.

You need to check the pressure differential. Water fuel sep all work better on the vacuum side but depending on the actual fitler design they can be used on either side. The Donaldson's are good to 100 PSI. As far as strain on the pump on the vacuum side the ones I have listed a number of times are less than 1 psi at there max recommend flow rates. The thing to do is put a pressure sensor there and when vacuum hits a certian level change it. I suggest getting the highest flow rate you can find for the given micron rating you want to go with as the less % your flow rate is compared to its max rating the lower the pressure dif will be on it.
