Review on 🚰 Fill-Rite F1810HC1: Water Sensing Fuel Filter with Drain (Clear) - 1" 18GPM (68 LPM) by Pius Aponte

I purchased a Fill-Rite 1200KTG9075 filter kit for my 1200 pump. Following the instructions in the kit causes the filter to make contact with the pump housing. I've seen other reviewers debate the need for extra parts and now I understand what they wrote about. I think I could get it working with the filter and filter head sticking out the front or back of the pump, but that wouldn't look right, would it? For me, the idea behind buying a kit from Fill-Rite was to get the parts I needed without having to drive to the store to buy additional parts. I'm going to the parts store tomorrow. Maybe I don't understand something in the kit, but then again there are only 3 parts in it and I followed the instructions. This issue is not necessary and Fill-Rite should address this issue by providing the appropriate parts in the kit.
