So I've got the FM10 Water Separator filter in place, and
I'm wondering if it's okay that my biodiesel is actually
filling the separator bowl and is visible?
I imagined that only water would drain off into it (when present)
but perhaps this is incorrect?
thanks,

I bought an FM10 water separator filter for my 1982 300SD, and in
the instructions it suggests that I mount it to the left front "core
support" bracket.
After surveying for a spell, I was unable to locate this bracket
in the engine compartment. Can anyone point me, via other
reference points, to this bracket?
Thanks in advance,
tbird
I noticed a bit of soot in the instrument panel of my '84 300SD. I also get a few specks of soot on the grille and under the hood. My guess is that I have a minor leak somewhere on the exhaust side of the engine. Is there anywhere that seems prone to leakage? Exhaust manifold gasket, turbo gasket, etc.?
Thanks for any advice you can provide.
