Hey,  

While draining the Raycor filter of H2o and impurities I was using a very 
bright light in the engine compartment instead of my usual 12volt service light.  
I was able to see small bubbles entering the Raycor primary filter from the 
bottom position of the hand turning drain spigot.

After eight years I have never had an air lock problem in my fuel system.  I 
drain it a couple of times a season but have never seen these tiny bubbles 
(Maybe I should ask Don Ho.)
I tapped the Racor a few times as it was draining off the gunk and saw a few 
more air bubbles entering.  My boat will be lifted into the water next week 
and I wonder if anyone has experience with this or opinions, as to weather or 
not I should bleed the system again prior to run up.
