Ok .. it's not on a boat but I thought I'd ask here .....
Our Condo Bldg. has a 100 KW Emerg. Diesel Generator and I noticed on a walk through that the primary fuel filter is mounted at almost 90 deg. to the vertical ( almost horizontal ). Since the outlet from the fuel tank is close to floor level, the filter did not have the clearance to be upright when they built this thing. Is this filter doing the proper job ? I was under impression that there should be a centrifuge effect of sorts .. ? that's why they are vertical.
Tx. in advance ..... FB
