I’m in the process of converting my garbage Racor fuel filters to the 2 stage system from “Filtration the Seaboard way” . I will have a FS1218 primary and a FS19596 secondary filter. My boat (new to me in Nov. 2017) is a ’99 Boston Whaler 31L, with twin 6BTA 315 HP engines. I currently have Racor WIF indicators on the dash, but I’m replacing the entire dash with new gauges, etc., and I’d like to get rid of the old, weathered Racor indicators, and replace them with something from this century. I’ve scoured the internet, but I can’t find an information on wiring the sensor to just an indicator light, or replacement indicators from Cummins. I assume that there’s more to these than just a simple switch circuit, and that they need some supporting electronics as well. Any Ideas?
Also, Thank you for all of the information that you post in Tony’s Tips. I jump on and read them whenever I have a spare minute, and they have pointed me towards looking at items that the previous owner (and his “Certified” Cummins Mechanic) overlooked. I installed one new “Seaboard” aftercooler, and repaired and pressure tested the other one. I changed all of the raw rater hoses, and found that the transmission coolers were 75% clogged, so I cleaned them. These would have been very costly repairs if left unattended, so …Thanks Again!
