Re: fuel tank replacement

Is anything wrong with your tanks? Seems like everyone thinks they have to replace tanks just because they are made of galvanized steel. If they are not leaking and don't show signs of deteriorating inside or outside then why replace them?

Re: F32 Vibration Briefly in Reverse

I'm following this closely. My starboard engine vibrates for a few seconds when I first go into reverse. My theory is that when you first hit reverse you are probably carrying forward momentum and it takes time to stop the boat and reverse direction. This is when the prop shaft is under the highest ...

Re: Refitting a 1976 F-32 Journal

A few updates to share. I installed new kitchen and bathroom faucets. The kitchen was a bit of a challenge as I hade to take out the kitchen sink bowl so I could access the plumbing for the faucet. Bathroom was a simple swap. I changed the two water separator filters and the two inline fuel filters....

Re: 1975 F32 Trojan Endless Love <3

1976 F-32 Fuel Line Size

I'm not close to my boat right now. But was wondering who knows for sure what size copper line was used for the fuel line from the fuel pump to the carb?
