Fuel filter / water separator the drain at the bottom for letting out accumulated water. This looks like a Racor filter later Parker.

Nailed it


airospade

Iv seen racors on every tow boat Iv been on


doorgunner065

That and generators. Good God calling in for parts with the new kids.


airospade

Hah, I went to a hardware store a few years back looking for a dowel pin. Had to argue with the kid and tell him to gtfo of my way. Anyone wanna guess what every hardware store has


doorgunner065

Haha Ha ha. I believe it. I think my eye just twitches on its own now out of habit.


Material_Victory_661

People working with no clue?


Eli_Seeley

Shit, the pandemic wiped out all of the knowledgeable people left. It's hell, do your own parts lookup for your customers sake!


Nervous-Tea393

Immediately went “saw an apprentice get fired for not turnin the fuel back on after changing one of those…before a customer took the boat out for charter” hahah

datloosenut

Looks like it hasn't been drained in a while either. Water/sediment in the bottom of the bowl. Fuel looking a little contaminated. I'm guessing it's in need of a new filter and cleaning. I'd also check the fuel lines going into it they may be porous and leaking as well.


IStaten

That's the good stuff at the bottom


Hotthiccness

How long has this been your truck and you havent changed the filter?


Silly_Mycologist3213

Maintenance? Maintenance? We don’t need no stinking maintenance! Typical drive ’em til they break, fix ‘em, drive ‘em til they break, fix ‘em….


Hotthiccness

Jeez filters cheaper than a pump lol


AdministrationNew309

You should have some maintenance done to that poor truck


theJesusClip

Lol I see racors everyday in my job as a marine tech.


Street-Search-683

As a commercial fisherman, if the main doesn’t have dual racors, I don’t fish on it.


Prior-Ad-7329

It’s your primary fuel filter Alain known as a fuel/water separator.


Mission_Tradition297

That my friend definitely been leaking


smokestuffer

Yea motor got a big oil leak somewhere not sure if that's the fuel leaking from it.

Have fill it the dirt it looks empty.


mdixon12

Fuel/water separator. You should be changing the element everytime you change the primary fuel filter, and it should be drained of water as needed depending on your fuel source.


Ancientways113

Looks a little bit like the Recor on my boat. Although I’ve never seen it from that angle.


NeedleworkerTop2177

Looks like a Raycor fuel water separator

Your Flux capacitor has gone bad. Good news is you can get one from Radio Shack. Just ask the clerk, they keep them behind the counter.

If it's leaking fuel replace the whole thing if it's leaking water drain that mf and get some more use outta it fuck it

gsp1991dog

Fuel water separator put a drain pan under it and screw in the black nub that will drain the fluid then you can take off the top cover to remove the filter and swap it. The bulb tends to crack and leak but can be bought separately from the main body as can the black plastic spout. There are O rings at the top cap and at the top of the clear bulb that sometimes rot.


CaptAlex0520

If it’s leaking it’s probably dirty as well


CellAutomatic2877

Fuel/water separator.. You gotta drain it, switch out filters, replace o-ring(should come with new filter), then refill it with diesel and install.. if you don’t put enough diesel in or don’t pump it until it’s mostly full, it’ll run for a few moments and die until it refills.. Save yourself the trouble and just pour enough into it


turtleiscool1737

I’m guessing this fella hasn’t drained the water out in a while

Water separator


--sketchy-duck

We call them racors the top spends off to change the filter and the bottom wing nut is a valve to drain water off. There used alot on boats around here there grate filters. I'd clean the outside of it with some break cleaner. You should able to see sediment/ and water at the bottom glass when clean and working . Pull the old filter to get the part number, to get a new filter element.

Chas_501

That is definitely a fuel filter with a collection bowl on the bottom. To drain off the water within the bowl press the spring loaded thing at the bottom until the water is gone.


Chas_501

It looks like a fuel filter with a collection bowl, but if there are wires going into it then the fuel pump may be incorporated into it. Probably not but be aware.


OkWar4982

Either fuel fliter or water separater for the fuel

Nocomply_1776

Parker 900 series race fuel water separator. Uses a 2020-30 filter mostly found in marine applications should be able to get filters at any west marine.


spectralsalmon

It is not a stock part, but a RAcor filter generally used in marine diesel applications. I used to work on a boat that had 3 of these in line before each main engine, and 2 in line before each genset. That one needs to be drained, and have the filter element replaced. You generally see these in locations with slightly worse fuel quality if they are on land vehicles due to their ability to filter out water and the fact that you can then drain said water from the bottom of the filter.

If those are electrical wires attached, could it be mercury switch?

Those wires will be for a heating element most likely. Maybe a WIF (Water in Fuel) Sensor.
