Post 466 fuel vent hose 2001


It seems as if the fuel vent hose is leaking, but I can’t get over to it, is there any access in the salon to the vent hose or fuel fill hose on the starboard side. Filled up yesterday ran for about 5 hours and at the marina noticed fuel dripping from either the vent or fill hose. Took fill cap off and there was some pressure in the tank. Other than the pressure how else could fuel leak from a hose above the tank? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you

Post Voyager 530 Pilot House Air Conditioner Access??


We have a 2000 Voyager 530 and our pilot house air conditioning is leaking condensation water which presents itself coming out from under the fridge in the galley. I assume that the condensation drip pan drain is plugged causing the overflow. The unit is under the stairs that lead from the pilot house to the fly bridge. The lower stairs are obviously designed for removal, but I cannot figure out if there is a release mechanism or screws that are holding the stairs in place.



Any guidance on how t ...

Post 2000 406 diesel auxiliary fuel tank info


Hello, Hoping to get some info on aux fuel tank set up for a 406. From what I can tell, the port and starboard tanks each hold 97 gallons and the aux tank at the back holds 142 gallons. When I look at the fuel valves at the stern in the engine room there are 2 -3 way valves I believe they are labeled Port aux off and Starboard aux off. Both are currently pointed to the thier respective side. I assume if I wanted to draw from the Aux tank I would have to manually move the valve to the aux ...

Post Click Flooring


It's time to replace our carpeting throughout and my thoughts are leaning towards a wooden plank look rather than carpeting again. I'm looking at solid vinyl click planks rather than an engineered wood product because I simply don't want to worry about moisture, spills, leaks, etc.



Of the samples and instructions I've seen, it seems none of the household choices are designed to be exterior installs. They seem to all be targeted to interior installations where temperatures are steady year round bu ...

Post Hurth Transmissions on 1994 390 CPMY, 454’s


Been getting a squeak on transmissions, mainly starboard between 750 and 900 when motoring forward. Above or below don't hear it. Pretty much same as when you turn the shafts when it is on the hard in the dry cutlass bearing. Well



Today I was warming up the engines, and at idle I could hear that light squeal from the starboard transmission while in Neutral. Fluid was changed 5 years ago and mechanic sid filter was pretty heavy. I changed last year and filter was clean, and fluid good. I didn’t wa ...

Post 2 part post, start with 454 carbs


My 390 has 454 Carbed engines. The starboard is newer with 125 hours. Been about 4 years and I am ready to replace spark plugs. NOT. lot of room in there. They look OK from the outside,. I came back from a 50 mile trip and sprayed some WD40 (ll I had) into the area of the spark plugs, hoping s it cools it will draw the WD into the plug thread. Do you change hot engine or cold? Keep in mind the are on the outside of the engine will roast your arms if you get them on that manifold. Suggestions? Sh ...
