Re: Photo of the fuel tank out of the boat

I am glad my suggestion might help; I used an air horn. It puts out a lot more pressure. The filter that Amel puts at the outlet inside of the fuel tank is an odd place to put a filter. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite Amel Super Maramu #376

Yes- removed both inspection ports, made gaskets out of Nitrile (1/8 inch) and cleaned the outlet. When refilling the tank, I only took on 90 pct of my diesel and left the dregs in their temp storage tank. Then bled the system at the racors so it will hopefully start OK. The bottom of the tank had to be scraped out with a metal scraper- it was coated with a filmy resin. SV L'ORIENT |
