Check your fuel pump for pin holes.

If you have not changed your fuel pumps diaphragm in awhile I am to the understanding it would be good to do so when installing a water/fuel separator.

I too installed a water/fuel separator for the first time my boat has had one in 20 years. I replaced the diaphragm and there were no problems.
