Yep, about 3 or 4 inches long, maybe 2 inches in diameter.

I got it! By pushing some upholstery aside, I found a small bracket on each side of the platform screwed into the flooring. Once I removed those, I was able to lift the center floorboard and pull it out. And yes, there is an in-line canister-type filter. The PCM manual says to change it annually. Hah! Maybe if they put it in a better place.
I know Candlewood well, pretty lake but lots of traffic. Thanks. Roger |

Well now I am interested, there was not a filter back there on our 206 with an Excalibur??
The rear seat base on the 206 is held down with a couple rubber straps on each end, the 196 may be similar. BTW, our family has a place on Candlewood in Sherman, not far from you. |

The only reason I even looked is because it's mentioned in the owner's manual. But yeah, if you remove the stuffing-box access plate and shine a flashlight in, there it is. I just changed the filter in the FCC, but can't get at this one.

With Brian on this one, believe you only have the filter in the FCC canister which is under the doghouse.

Also, do you know, for sure, if your boat even has a filter in that location? I have one in the location you mention on my boat, but I don't think my setup is designed to be under any pressure the way it would be on a modern boat.
I didn't realize those were run in tandem with the FCC style filters, but I could be wrong. With your clamshell removed, you should be able to look underneath the floor with a flash light and see it if it's there. |

This floor board... would it slide forward, towards the engine (and out from under the seat platform) and then up? It seems crazy to have to do all that to get at a fuel filter...

Hi All,
I am trying to change my primary fuel filter on a 2009 Ski Nautique 196. The filter is, of course, under the floorboard behind the engine. I removed the engine clamshell, removed the rear seat bottom cushion, but there is still a platform for the seat cushion I can't figure out how to remove. Any suggestions? Thanks. Roger |
