What is the best fuel filter for my Yamaha Saltwater Series 2 250hp outboard?

Question: Gas tends to have water or debris and my motor is a bit sensitive to both. What is the best out there? Especially against water. Right now I use a Racor S3228UL filter.

Answer: Mercury makes a great spin on filter, but Racor is one of if not the best. If you are getting water and debris in your gas you need to find a different supplier or have your fuel tank polished(pumped and filtered and returned). Also check your vent (it should be facing rearward and down) and your fill cap gasket. Ethanol gas is said to be very sensitive to moisture, and will pull moisture out of the atmosphere and into the tank thru the vent. You should keep the tank full when not in use.
