Fuel Water Seperator
 
I am going to install a fuel water separator kit on my 2001 180 Diablo.

My question is since the boat has a full tank of gas in it for storage, when I cut the fuel line will the fuel come flowing out of the tank? Would I be better off pinching the line near the tank and then cutting the line?



Help please...

Cheers

I wouldn't expect the line to be under any pressure as you haven't used the boat since last fall. At most i would think there might be a few drops that drain back from the carb as the gas tank is located below where you would mount the separator.
