I removed the gascolater in my RV-4 about 2 years ago and installed an
automotive type in line filter in the line from each tank to the fuel valve.
This doesn't remove any water but will catch all the trash. Call it a
"trash filter". It has worked fine and was brought on by finding lots of
small specks of black proseal in the tank drain. All the water is drained
from the tank. In my case I also have a 13 gallon tank in the bagage
compartment which also has an inline filter. The filters have a large
capacity and only need to be replaced at annual or later. A futher
advantage is that this set up also reduces the possibility of vapor lock.
