Separate water separator
2008 Pro XS (1B706240) Just bought a boat that has a separate water separator (oil filter type) in the fuel line. Is this necessary? If so how often do they need to be changed out? Got the old fuel lines on it and I found pieces of hose in the fuel filter getting ready to replace everything. Local mechanic said it wasn’t necessary and I should take it off. Thoughts?

He is right, remove it. Any thing other than the bulb prior to the pulse pump can cause low or no fuel flow to the VST. Much higher probability of vapor lock. Be sure to rebuild or replace the pulse pump at the same time

Leon is right on this. Not required and could hinder flow.
