2006ish owners...need help. Fuel tank ?
Guys is there a cross over valve somewhere in the boat for left and right tanks? Or are they specific to each side? Need to find that valve if so..where is it?
|
Has separate tanks for each engine, makes fueling up a pain in the azz
|
One tank one engine, there are fuel shut off valves in the bilge for each tank, should be on the outside stringers, least mine are.
|
Found those. So no other valve to marry the tanks or just suck from one?
|
Nope, not on a Fountain... or an MTI for that matter! lol

knda weid thing my starboard motor always uses more fuel than the port motor. Maybe cause i always start that one first
And FYI Viper chad, 1/4 tank is about 10 gallons, 1/8 of a tank means you have about 30 more seconds of run time. I have tried adjusting the sending units, the shape of the tanks are the culprit. |

Mine is the same way, sometimes up to 7 gallons at fill up. I am thinking that motor is working a little harder. Personally I don't care that they are not linked, never seems to be an issue.

My fill ups are 2 to 5 gallons different. A couple years ago it creeped up and eventually hit 9+ gallons different so I sent the injectors in. One would go full flow above idle. I replaced it and cleaned the others and now I'm back to 2-5 gallons different at fill up.
Steering wheel looks sweet. The first things I changed were the wheel and cup holders. I see you're holding out on the cup holders. What's with the original white wheels? Maybe in a 71 Camaro but not my boat. Headed out boating in a few. It's supposed to hit 67F lol |
