The water filter has a coolant additive reducing silica build up leading to cavitation on the cylinder walls. My dad's 766 he bought new ended up cavitating holes in the cylinder walls and seized the engine up. He had the water filter on it but thought of it as a filter not water treatment.
The name 40th & Plum rang a bell with me. My hometown (Hutchinson, Ks) has just such an intersection.
40 miles from town and plum back in the sticks. 😆 thanks for watching .
