Re: Fuel Polishing
Danny and Yvonne SIMMS
Hi Ian, thanks for this. I was going to say the same but not knowing the number. I was once trouble shooting a fuel issue and rigged a 5 litre mini tank on the supply side, leaving the fuel return from the injector pump in place to the main tank.I was startled how quickly the 5 litre tank emptied. Obviously far more fuel is circulated than is used. Having said that I have had my fuel tank cleaned when I was chasing a solution to low revs. (things you do when you've tried every thing) There was a build up of sludge that was not being picked up by the fuel supply pipe and thus causing no trouble. I put the boat on a dock. The fuel cleaner parked his gear alongside and circulated all my fuel through his system while agitating the tank. I could not believe the filth that he got out. Buckets of it. He started with a coarse filter and got a lot out, then finer and finally very fine. Had he started with the fine it would have clogged. However it was not the solution, I still had the problem but very clean fuel. Regards Danny SM 299 Ocean Pearl
