Thanks, I'd already done it by the time I got your reply. It was just as
you describe but I did learn one little thing on my own. The large O ring
pops out very easily. I just happened to see it out of the corner of my eye
in the bilge as I put the cover on. How many hours do you thing I would
have been bleeding and cursing if I hadn't noticed that?

I'm a believer in 2 micron elements for the primary now, at least for this
little engine that doesn't have much fuel flow. The secondary filter looked
like it had been put in yesterday. I could probably change the Racor
primary and get the engine running again without bleeding the whole fuel
system but no way with the secondary. The secondary is also much harder to
change on my installation.

The doorbell hotwire I installed for the electric fuel pump works like a
charm. I was able to bleed the system in about a third the time it took the
boatyard.
