    Two year old fuel

    I'll take a look at the levels. I know the trim pump is going and spurts when up high. (VP DPS-A)

    Larson Cabrio 220 Shower Pump/Water in Cabin

    I have an 08 330 and just at the bottom of the stairs is a cover where the forward bilge, water pump, shower drain/pump thing and the fresh water intake/seacock is. Not sure if the 220 has the same, but any water issues would immediately be found in there for me. If you end up finding a...

    Two year old fuel

    Right, but they run fine.. at least from what I can tell. Which makes it even more of a mystery!

    Two year old fuel

    For anyone that was following along, engines run fine and I didn't add a thing. Changed the fuel filters though. I'm now running into what I think may be fuel coming out of the exhaust, but still trying to figure that one out.. just seeing a rainbow skim in the water after stopping.. heavy...

    Charging Issue - three battery system

    For anyone still following along, issue solved. Checked alternators and all worked fine. Port engine charges battery 1 and the house battery. Starboard engine alt charges battery 2. When on shore power, battery two wasn't getting charge unless it was set to 1&2. Checked voltage leaving charger...

    Charging Issue - three battery system

    Okay, so looks like when under engine if batteries are set to their respective number, they charge. It's when charging through shore there is an issue. Loose wire probably?

    Charging Issue - three battery system

    Yeah, good point on the simplicity. I can't see why they would have complicated things during initial wiring. I'm heading out to the boat this week and will check that alternator. From reading all the comments, looks like everything is being charged with port alt..

    Charging Issue - three battery system

    can't they be wired together in the event one is dead, you can always start both engines? From what I've been reading here, most likely a bad connnect from 2 or bad alternator though. I wonder what engine the house battery charges from then! Must be 1 I suppose..

    Charging Issue - three battery system

    Hey, battery one switch is at one. House battery is just on or off, which I put to on. Is it possible that engine one alternator charges both one and 2 and engine two only charges house battery?

    Charging Issue - three battery system

    Hi everyone. I thought I would throw this issue out there to the masses, as it may be a common thing and someone will know exactly what to replace/fix. It is most likely an open connection somewhere perhaps, but anyway here it is. Twin engine with two starter batteries and one house battery...

    5.7gi-j serpentine belt

    Hi all, I'm wanting to keep a few spares on board and have had good experience with Gates. Anyone know of the Gates part number for the VP 5.7 GI-J? I have went through the menu at Gates, but that engine doesn't show up which, to me, is very strange. Also, is anyone able to confirm that the...

    Battery Banks

    Hi all, I have read in a couple threads here that mixing chemical profiles is bad. Mixing old and new is so bad, but more acceptable due to the practical reasons (not replacing older batteries with new ones when they work just fine). I have three batteries. Two for the engines and one for the...

    Two year old fuel

    Yeah, I think that's the best plan really given how much money I have in those tanks right now. I wonder if it is just best to use most of the bad fuel before topping it off with new stuff.. then I know it's good fuel moving forward after the first drain of tanks. Idk..

    GPS chart plotter or ipad

    iPad is the way to go. Multi function, updates regularly without messing around with cards, clearer screen, just better. Caveat is that you need to get a waterproof case (catalyst lifeatyle or otter) and some sort of Mount (sea sucker naked Flex is the best imo). If you get the cell enabled...
