I just bought a 1976 Ford 3600 diesel 3 cylinder. In looking it over I have seen a couple of modifications to the fuel system which I am considering removing and one that I do not know what it is. It appears to have an electronic fuel pump with an extra inline fuel filter. Why would someone put this on? I am thinking they were having problems with the intank fuel filter and decided to fix it with this. The handle for the fuel shutoff at the bottom of the tank is broken off, I already got a new part with filter to replace it.
The other modification is some kind of little cylinder with fuel in and fuel out lines on the diesel return line. Water trap? I have no idea what this is.
I have owned a Ford 7000 for several years and it does not have these extra parts in the fuel system. I would like some thoughts on whether to remove them when I replace the shutoff valve and regular fuel filter.
