How does a fuel separator work?

A fuel / water separator is basicly a fuel bowl. The separating filter is mounted inline. As fuel enters and fills the separator, any water present, since it is heavier, will separate out, and lay at the bottom of the filter. The filter will continue to separate the water from the fuel in this manner until the filter becomes full of water. At this point, the filter becomes ineffective, and water will pass through with the fuel into the carbs or injection system.
