    She's coming along great guys. I know you're running diesels but even after you run your new blower hoses, a word to the wise is never trust any sniffer on the boat but your own nose. Always pop the engine hatch and let your nose tell you if there's any thing leaking.

    There is a product called h2out. It is a inline filter on your vent line to keep moisture out of the tank. Works really well. Your tank looks clean. Also add a Biocide to keep your fuel fresh and sludge free. That was a great survey. There is always something on them. Our 1st survey was 3 pages of repair items. Yours was 3 items. Your new boat is coming along well. Cheers.

    Jet fuel and diesel is vary close to the same density. Creating the same water problems. Water does not seperate in jet fuel as quickly as petrol. We had to check the sumps for water after settling overnight.

    If you're talking about the hose that connects to the blowers in the engine compartment they're kind of important because they remove fuel vapors from the engine area so that when you start the boat it doesn't create an explosion in the engine compartment of the boat. If you're talking about something else then no worries. Happy boating.

    Hey since your motors are Diesel. the Filters when you replace them always keep a pair on board as with all the different temperatures in the engine box condenseion is the big bad boy plus that is where you end up with a bug in Diesel it depends where you refill up from as if it happens when your out at Sea you can change filters and get going again

  • @Mark-jp9dz
    @Mark-jp9dz Год назад +1

    Next time you have to paint the anti-fouling, recommend that you get an extending pole to put the roller onto. It will speed up the work because you don't need to move so much, and will significantly reduce the back pain.
    I also recommend that you add "Fuel Set", as it will not only clean up the tanks completely, it will clean the injectors, and allow better fuel efficiency, plus reduce smoke. As a real bonus, if you have some water in the fuel, it will emulsify and then pass happily through the injectors and be burnt up. I had a very bad attack of the bug and having removed the worst of the jelly blobs, gave the tanks a shock dose, and it cleaned it up completely. I use in the outboard fuel as well (as recommended by Fuel Set engineers) and was able to use that fuel two years later. (2 Stroke oil prevented using it up in a car!)
