Been thinking about adding filters to my transfer tank. The tank is 50 gallons and came from a reefer.

Seems two filters would be ideal. Water and particulate.

I have a cheap 12v pump that sucks the fuel from the top of the tank. The tube is about 2” from the bottom of the tank. I could take fuel from the bottom as well

What would you guys recommend?

I use a goldenrod water separating bowl filter with a 17u filter first in line so I can see any contamination, followed by a 2u final filter.

I use a particulate and a Goldenrod water filter on my 500 gallon diesel storage tank and I am a firm believer in more filtration is better, especially with today's common rail systems on diesel engines , they claim just a little water can be fairly detrimental to your wallet.

The RACOR 500FG is an all in one fuel filter water separator and can see flow of 10 gallons per minute with a 2 micron cartridge.
