ELIMINATE FUEL STARVATION WITH
GLM’S LOW PICK-UP 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 turning
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

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

water/fuel separating filter after every 50 hours of engine operation!
