Trojan Boat Forum

I have recently purchased a 81 29ft Sportsman with twin 305xl crusaders. This is my first boat with a cabin coming for a 22ft Mako center console. Trying to do as much work on the boat myself as possible. My first problem is the smaller fuel tank is empty and I am not sure what is at bottom of tank or if old owner had problems with it or just didn't use it. I bought the boat from a dealer and I can't talk to previous owner. Can anyone help me with suggestions?

Pull the sender and inspect it and then pressure test it

For about $25 you can buy an endoscope (snake camera) from ebay and have a look. It won't let you know if it's leaking, buy you will see how bad it is in there.

Be sure to ground any tool or borescope that your inserting into the tank.

Thanks for the help!
