I'm looking to replace my old clear glass bowl type fuel filter for my
Volvo AQ130C 4 cylinder 130hp I/O engine with a modern day canister
type water-separating fuel filter for which, hopefully, filter elements
will be easily obtainable for the upcoming years.

Any recommendations on something under $50?

TIA!

Sierra. They are about $30. Spin on water separating filter. You can even
buy the fram replacement filter at most auto parts stores.

Under $50 ??

You're joking, right? For a Volvo?

You may be able to find something on Ebay. I highly recommend Racor
filter-seperators, especially a twin mount so that you can switch to a
clean filter without shutting down. I'd also recommend the 50gph size or
smaller, you don't need a 900 for a 4 cyl 130 hp.

GASOLINE.... NOT DIESEL... The Sierra should work fine. BTW... the
racor filters are NOT USCG approved for gas engines... No filters with
plastic or glass viewing bowls are. If they were diesel, then sure...
spend the money but not for gas....

Racor makes filters for gas motors also.

Yes, I saw that too. Hard to believe they give you two filters AND the
bracket for less $$ than one filter and the bracket, but it looks to be
so.

YES BUT they have a METAL bowl... not a plastic bowl.
