Still trying to learn this RaCor deal...
Got some new RaCor filters today. Pulled the old one out, completely
black. Don't know how long it's been in there, but obviously too
long. Replaced the filter & the seals per the instructions. Got the
drain at the bottom unclogged...here comes my question:

What's coming out of there obviously isn't "clean" green diesel. It is
of a thinner consistency than diesel (thinned by water I assume) and
has a color similar to a good dark beer...a rich, golden color. It
does smell like diesel, but certainly doesn't look like it.

What have I got here? Is this what watered diesel looks like? I
assume I should keep adding fresh diesel to the top and draining
this "stuff" out the bottom until it runs clean diesel out...am I
correct?

I am looking forward to getting out on the road this weekend and seeing
if I have more power. The regular fueld filter was recently
changed...I assumed the shop that did that also looked at the RaCor.
Nope.

Thanks
