A few questions about new 38
I just picked up my new to me 2000 38 Fountain Lightning. No Owners manual and I was looking for a few answers. Here are the questions I have for now.
1. 525sc's what gear oil in supercharger? 2. There are 2 fuel tanks. Is there a switch to pull from one or the other or do they pull from both at same time? 3. Where is the fresh water fill for sink and fresh water wash? |
Should be like my 2000.... one tank per motor. No crossover or switches, just a ball valve in the bilge to turn each one off. The fresh water fill on mine is a hose connection on the port side of the bilge just below the sunpad hinge.
|
Size of tanks? I have found fresh fill.
How fast is she with the 500 efi's? Anybody on the supercharger gear oil? I heard you could use the Quicksilver HP gear lube SAE90?? |
I don't think the size of the tanks would be different but, mine are 100 gal each. I can't remember what year the size of the steps changed, mine are the larger. twin semi-stagger 525's 88-89 MPH.
don't have blowers so, not sure about the oil. I would contact TEAGUE about that. |
I use the NEO/Bravo shop outdrive oil (75w90MRHD) in my Blowers. The service manual for my B&M 250s recommended 80-90w gear lube.
Here is a link to the Fountain service manuals: http://www.fountainpowerboats.com/se...er_manuals.asp Download the manual. My fresh water fill on my 29 is on the port side in the engine compartment. There is a garden hose fitting near the top and the water resevoir sits right below it. |
Not sue on exact weight but I used amsoil gear oil in mine

Where's the pics ?
