Negative, you need a can style filter for that.

Water separation, and increased filter area are the two primary reasons I swapped my oberg for a can style filter. I'm not sure why the factory thought they were a good idea, they're not a very good filter.

Not sure how that would do that as it is a screen.

With the. Xli engines you will find your water seperator next in line after the oberg 28 micron. It is a racor 110a 10 micron fuel and water seperator filter. And after that the final in line filter is a cannister before the tbi assy.

Yea, my intent was to run the engines dry and do the Racor's. But then I wanted to get the Oberg's since the system was emptied and knock them both out.

That was weird, the forum acted up, and posted the message twice, a day later. Still had the busy "wheel" when I opened my laptop this morning, then posted the same message again.
