  • DIESEL BUG in 35 Year Old SAILBOAT Fuel Tank I Ep. 67
    In this episode, we head back to the 1980s to clean some diesel bug in our 35 year old sailboat! You may remember a few episodes back, our engine failed leaving our berth in Plymouth, to a blockage in the fuel tank. This was down to diesel bug and we finally got around to cleaning the tanks, removing the diesel bug and installing an inspection hatch.
    Don't worry there's still some time, to show you what Lauren cooks up in our small sailboat galley.
    We also give you an update on our P-bracket and how we have managed to fix it in the short term, with the view to getting hauled again in the future.
    We hope you enjoy! Let us know if you've been a victim of diesel bug too!

    In the coming future, buy a drill pump and a few meters of tubing. You will find it useful in so many ways.

    Very posh new intro
    Looks like you’re beginning to tick off the jobs to be done list they will certainly help
    I’m impressed Top class menu being served onboard whilst the chaos of boat maintenance continues

    Disposable nappies are excellent for soaking up diesel and water etc ,worth having a pack aboard.

      Oh we didn’t know this! Great tip, there is always diesel and oil in places.

    Many of us have been there, the good news is that once cleaned out and the o ring on the tank filler we haven't had a repeat for 8 years now.

      This is good to hear! We will have to check the o-ring on tank filer, good point!
