Re: Gas Tanks

check for cross over hoses under the electronic pumps in the engine copartment, there should be several ball valves that control fuel.

Re: Gas Tanks

When I'm on the boat I just keep mine on all the time. The power is cut to them when you turn the keys off so it doesn't matter. I just turn them off when the boats stored.

Speaking of fuel issues....How hard is it to "re-plumb" so to speak, the fuel gauges?? Mine are WAAAAY off. I'd like them to be at least slightly accurate.

Re: Gas Tanks

Just pop the access panel off thats under your rear seat (rectangular). You'll see the fuel line assemblies and access screws for the floats on each tank.
