Racor Information
Dave, others, I contacted RACOR today and checked with their tech
support. They advised it was only for the 500 series built before
1997 and as of August this year there will be a spacer in all new
elements. So check your coaches, I have a 900 series which is
unaffected.

Great Catch Dave, thanks for the heads up.
