Does that make it OK if one is heading straight at you then?

A container blowing from a pressure release valve is not the container failing, it is acting as it should, releasing the pressure to prevent an explosion. So yes, nonsense.

I will do what I can to help but I have never worked on one of those engines. First of all the ENGINE only has one fuel filter, probably the one you were supplied with. Good practice would also fit some form of water trap between the fuel tank and the engine. If the water trap is an agglomerator (all filters will agglomerate water) then it will contain a replaceable filter. If it is some other type of water trap it may have nothing more in it than space and an inverted cone or a washable/cleanable element. Many boast do not have such a water trap so you need to follow the main fuel feed pipe from the tank to see if you have one or not. If you do and can send a photo we may then be able to tell you how to deal with it. I am sure the engine filter is a spin on type and that the engine is self bleeding so this is the procedure. 1. make sure the start battery is well charged (it normally is). 2. Take the new filter and fill with CLEAN diesel that you bought for the job. Road diesel is fine. 3. Put a smear of engine oil around the rubber seal(s) on the top of the filter and stand upright to one side. 4. Remove the old filter and make sure all the rubber seals come off as well, do not inadvertently leave a seal in place. 5. If the new filter does not have a centre seal but the old one does change the seal over. 6 Upend the old filter into an old plastic food tub to drain. 7. Screw the new filter onto the engine and once the seal touches the filter head tighten it a further half to three quarters of a turn BY HAND. 8. Start engine, it will take a few goes and may stall if any air gets into the injector pump, but just spin it a bit more. 9. Shake the remaining "stuff" out of the old filter into the tub and inspect for signs of Jelly (bug) hardish black flecks (degrading fuel hoses) or rusty water. 10 Clean up, check for leaks and try a few more starts. PS - I do not think your fuel filter will have a centre bolt but if the primary filter is an agglomerator it might. It may also have four seals for you to get in the right place. Hence my wanting to know what it is if you have one.

as we have established, where petrochemicals are burning fiercely and the containers failing by expansive behavior of the contents ('blowing up'), it is classified as a type of explosion. 40 years in the oil and gas industry taught me the potential of a petrochemical 'mechanical explosion'. Wiki: Mechanical and vapor[edit]Strictly a physical process, as opposed to chemical or nuclear, e.g., the bursting of a sealed or partially sealed container under internal pressure is often referred to as a 'mechanical explosion'. Examples include an overheated boiler or a simple tin can of beans tossed into a fire. Boiling liquid expanding vapor explosions are one type of mechanical explosion that can occur when a vessel containing a pressurized liquid is ruptured, causing a rapid increase in volume as the liquid evaporates. Note that the contents of the container may cause a subsequent chemical explosion, the effects of which can be dramatically more serious, such as a propane tank in the midst of a fire. In such a case, to the effects of the mechanical explosion when the tank fails are added the effects from the explosion resulting from the released (initially liquid and then almost instantaneously gaseous) propane in the presence of an ignition source. For this reason, emergency workers often differentiate between the two events. so ............ NOT NONSENSE.

Social services training for fostering included quite in depth drug training so you knew what to look for.If you have ever seen breaking bad(recommended), a very similar reduction method is used for crystal meth.

If you live on a street and decide to 'store' broken fridges and old mattresses in your front garden you will be asked by the council to smarten up. Why any different for boaters occupying a place of leisure?
