[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 505688, member: 3438"] It stopped raining, so will pull the filter again. This time will dump in glass jar and see if there is water. A new filter is on the way. If it shows enough water, will need to look into pumping tank. The filter and bowl that is on the engine does have some sort sensor on the bottom. maybe it detects water? I'm fairly certain the 150 Merc has this capability. ie it is one of the beep codes on the chart. Years ao, when ethonal was still new, had problems in my small outboards. The phase seperation would clog the filters on the motors. Traced the water back to the portable tanks. When it rained, the water was getting in through the vent cap and/or fuel gauge. Now I stand the tanks up, when they are not covered. haven't had a repeat proble on them since. [/QUOTE]
