emeraldcoast Warrant Officer Registered: 04/27/08 Posts: 4	Hey all. Thanks to Parrothead and deepv I've located the filter. Far aft on the port side....vertically. I felt it. Is there an easy way of getting it off short of hiring a 2' tall contortionist? Thanks again.

EFI gives you a remote filter by default, I thought. _________________________ 72% of fatal boat accidents are caused by boaters that haven't taken a safe boating course. 2001 Sea Ray Sundeck 190 5.0 EFI Alpha I,Generation 2 2002 4x4 LB Lariat CC F250, 7.3PSD

deepv Safety Officer Admiral Registered: 03/17/04 Posts: 6684 Loc: SoCal	Okay, well I bought mine used and the previous owner must have ordered it as one of the available options then. You need to lay on top of the engine and reach down in there with a strap wrench to get the filter off, emeraldcoast. _________________________ 72% of fatal boat accidents are caused by boaters that haven't taken a safe boating course. 2001 Sea Ray Sundeck 190 5.0 EFI Alpha I,Generation 2 2002 4x4 LB Lariat CC F250, 7.3PSD

Scott L Admiral Registered: 01/09/03 Posts: 3733 Loc: NJ	A very good option for sure ! I took a real hard look at the 190 back in the day - nice boat - versatile for sure. I do remember that the filter and the trim pump resiviour were a little tought to get at _________________________ 2003 Chaparral 200 SSi - Volvo 5.7 Gi-Sx - " Ready or Knot " " Everybody seems normal - until you get to know them "

Usually Newport Boats will put all or most of the goodies on their showroom models, of which (back then at least), they'd have several in stock and ready to take home today. _________________________ 72% of fatal boat accidents are caused by boaters that haven't taken a safe boating course. 2001 Sea Ray Sundeck 190 5.0 EFI Alpha I,Generation 2 2002 4x4 LB Lariat CC F250, 7.3PSD
