ELIMINATE FUEL STARVATION WITH
GLM’S LOW-PICKUP WATER/FUEL
SEPARATOR MOUNTING BRACKET
Engine compartment temperatures can soar on hot summer days
creating high gasoline temperatures. High temps and agitation caused by
rough seas can aerate the gasoline in the water/fuel separator filter turn-
ing it into foam. A fuel pump can’t pull aerated gasoline from the water/fuel
separator and deliver it to the carburetor
or fuel rail efficiently. The engine will GLM
show signs of gasoline starvation (lean)
at high speeds, a situation very similar
to vapor lock.
Because this aerated gasoline rises Our design
prevents air
to the top of the water/fuel separating from entering
the fuel
filter, GLM has introduced a filter mount- system.
ing bracket with a fuel pick-up extending
deeper into the filter. Through extensive
research and testing the GLM engineers
have found the optimum location for the
fuel pick-up. The deeper location is low CONVENTIONAL
enough to be free of aerated gasoline
but high enough to be free of the water
in the bottom of the separator.
The deeper fuel pickup is only found Air molecules
rise to top
on the new GLM water/fuel separator and into
the fuel
mounting bracket kits. It might solve some system.
of those mysterious fuel delivery problems
your engine may be experiencing!
*For trouble free boating always remember to replace your
water/fuel separating filter after every 50 hrs. of engine operation!
