    It think it is automatic when they "open" it by reading it. Bill will know. Charlie

    Removal of racor fuel filter.

    I think much of the junk gets caught in the filter and only some (mostly water) ends up in the bowl. Charlie

    If they have popups blocked, they may not notice that it's in their in box. Or if they don't have email notifications selected. Charlie

    Removal of racor fuel filter.

    At some point, I think they changed the O-ring to a different material. And Tom, that is a once a year change, at least on the East Coast! :lol: Charlie

    towing mileage

    Our (mine and Dr. Bob's) gets about 21 when not towing and 15 when it towed the TC 255 from Pensacola to Virginia, about 900 miles. 7.3L diesel Excursion. Everyone wants to buy it. Don't ask, it's not for sale, it's my last "truck"! Charlie

    Distance between Twin Outboards??

    Depends on the type of transom, whether (or nor) he plans on trim tabs and or hydraulic steering. Ordinarily I'd say "as far apart as possible" for maneuverability but the answers to the above questions will probably dictate an answer. Charlie

    Venture 23 (C Dory) Hot Water Heater?

    Sunbeam, you are correct about how it works but if he's got a 20 gallon water tank and a 6 gallon water heater tank, he carries 26 gallons of water. If he takes the little tank out, he's got only 20 gallons. Essentially he'd be using the 6g tank as an extra tank, only it comes out of the hw...

    Venture 23 (C Dory) Hot Water Heater?

    If you heat water on the stove, don't forget that there are 6 gallons in the water heater and you are not required to turn it on! Saving that will help your resale value too! That gives you some extra capacity. Charlie

    Suzuki DF150 overheating

    I've given him the salt away and the two hose rig that I made up so he could either do both engines at once or one engine on the two flush ports. He opted just to leave the tstat out. He also had problems starting that engine. Turns out he didn't replace the racors. After doing that on both...

    East Coast Docking Techniques

    I've always found that, if the configuration is as you described it, to back in, get the stern tied up (with long mooring lines), then go ahead slowly until you can get the bow out and get it close enough to the forward pilings. A boat hook is useful here if they are tall. With current and...

    Suzuki DF150 overheating

    He used the water pump rebuild kit. And used the service manual and D Rays YouTube video. No blades missing from either of the old ones. On the way back, he lost RPMs on that engine but has not checked or changed fuel filters. Does not overheat with tstat out. We'll use salt away in the...

    Suzuki DF150 overheating

    The new owner of THATAWAY is in town preparing to cruise for a couple of weeks on the Chesapeake. Launched at the marina last week and the port engine overheated after about 20 minutes. He had just replaced both impellers and the engines pumped water well. We took out the thermostat and he...
