Fuel is what puts the performance in performance boats. Contaminated fuel or a malfunctioning fuel system can lead to poor performance or worse.
Thanks to our competitive prices and vast inventory of specialty inboard parts, Bakes Marine makes it easy to maintain your boat’s engine and prevent problems. We carry performance boat fuel systems parts and filters from leading brands like Indmar and PMC, so you can buy with confidence.
The first line of defense against contamination and bad fuel is a boat fuel filter, which will prevent crud from getting into the boat fuel tank. Parts available here include a variety of fuel filters as well as a big boat fuel pump selection.
Water in a marine fuel system can be particularly pernicious for engines. But in the watery environment where boats operate, the wet stuff is omnipresent, of course. A good fuel filter with a water separator can keep the H2O out of your engine.
Vapor lock can lock down your fun on the water. It tends to occur on really hot days and can cause stalling or difficulty starting your engine. To keep your boat and crew happy, try our fuel pump vapor lock prevention kit. It goes inline before the fuel filter to keep the high-pressure pump primed with fuel.
It’s smart to observe the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule to avoid problems. That means changing fuel filters on time. Wise boaters also carry spares of some crucial fuel system replacement parts so they can do DIY fixes when necessary without having to call for a tow.
