fuel fill location
 

I just purchased a 1997 47ft Fountain lighting and are trying to determine which of the three inlets goes to the port and/or starboard tanks. The inlets are on the starboard side three in a row. I am thinking the center inlet is to the center motor The fuel gauges are no help as they do not indicate correctly.
Any help would be appreciated.

I too have a 1997 47' lightning i soon will find out this when i fill up again seeing how my port motor is full. but if I had to guess everything reads from left to right on the dash so.....Port Cntr. Strbd.??

Just curious as to if you tow your 47' and if so with what?

I always keep mine full. Guess u can trace the full hoses. F350 pulls mine fine.

F450 4x4 witht the boat at 23,540 lbs!!!!

Wow, how is ur boat so heavy. Mine weighed 17,800 with steel 52' trailer and full to the rim of fuel.

ok Here is a check list do you have?:

full freash water tank?
loaded frig (beer, water bottles, soda, etc....)
generator?
water heater?
A/C-Cabin Heater?
triple 572 w/B&M Blowers?
triple 200 gal. fuel tanks?
4 Group 27 batteries?

That is what I had on the boat when I put her on the scale I needed to what she weight ing at fully armed!

yeah I wouldnt be towing long distances with full water, fuel, and food. That happens when I get closer

The furthest back fuel fill is port. Center is center, and foreward fuel fill is starbord.

I do have a 25 gal water tank.
I do have triple 120 gal fuel tanks that stay full. Not sure how u have 200 gal tanks. Even my buddy's brand new one has 120's.
I have a 5.0 westerbeke generator.
Triple 500 efi.
A/C in cabin and cockpit. I have full encloser
$30K stereo with 6 12" subs, this system has to weigh alot
6 blue top optima batterys.
big radar arch (took it off but back on now)
And a 27" flat screen with full system downstairs. 2 15" subs
Like I said ur trailer must weigh close to 10K pounds. I can't see how ur boat could weigh more than mine.
