It is NOT an extra filter. It is a diesel water separator which is installed correctly, before the primary filter. I have one in all of my cars. They do a great job. I would leave it in place but change the 'diesel water' filter. There may be bad fuel before with a lot of water trapped inside.

You can by-pass it first to see whether it resolves your problem but I would recommend leaving it in.
