 I am quite certain it is related to the Fuel pump and not the fuel lift pump, and when you guys are bleeding the system at the injector are you doing so at the Banjo nut(return) or the pipe compression fitting?

This may be related Jon, mine ran smoothly and then got slower, and slower, and slower... and I think the answer was the angle of the hose that leaves the tank and exits off the port stern. Along the way there is a "creative solution" that came with the boat that consists of a glass jar for overflow fuel. When the engine ran slower I found this jar full and the hose was flat along the bottom of the hull, under the cushion until the end where it ran up to stern. I had changed it over the winter, until then it hung rather awkwardly and I think I now know why! Can anyone shed any suggestions or better way to create the seamless exit for this venting hose? ------------- Bill Ryan, Room4Crew, #155 |
