True, it is outdated, but i think the article is main pupose is rating the performance of various filters.

I didn't know the marpac filters I use are not that great, I'm gonna switch after reading that article.

If the fuel gets too much water in it, it is unusable. There are "supposedly" some products that can reverse it, but don't believe everything you read.

If this is happening to your boat you gotta find out how the water is getting in before you have to replace more than just a filter.
