I have a 1987 Tiara with 270 C
I have a 1987 Tiara with 270 Crusader gas engines.There are 2 fuel filters for each engine. One is located on a bulkhead and is a Racor 200FGM. I am told that this is a 2 micron filter to be used on diesel engines and that I should not use less than a 25 micron filter on a gas engine because the mechanical fuel pumps will not be able to supply enough fuel to the engine. The boat runs fine and I believe these filters were original equipment. Should I replace them if I am not having a problem?
