S I have an inboard 2.3l ford and runs like a kitten. No problems for the year. I was running it today and abruptly stopped for about 15 minutes. After I finished what I was doing I restarted the motor and ran fine for a few seconds and died. No fuel going into the carb. The speratot was full of water. Mind you the gas was an hour old and last tank was 2 weeks prior. How did water get into the seperator. After a tow and trip home I emptied the seperator and filled it was gas and all was well from that point on. How in the world did my filter fill with water?
