I used a small electric rotary pump which the boatyard mechanic uses. Five gallons at a time, and the boatyard crane which is an old diesel unit will take anything.. Gary From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of robert via CnC-List Sent: Friday, September 15, 2017

Re: Stus-List Fuel Tank Replacement

I used the brass Jabsco hand pump used for oil changes, exchanging the small tube for the dipstick with a piece of tubing that fit the input of the pump. Took about 20 minutes to empty 12 gallons. Ed Levert C&C 34 Briar Patch New Orleans, La. On Fri, Sep 15, 2017 at 7:11 AM, robert via CnC-List

Re: Stus-List Fuel Tank Replacement

Hi Bill I am also planning to replace our tank. The Moeller tank looks like the vent and outlet vertically oriented fittings which makes fitting under the cockpit sole a tight affair. Can the tank be ordered with these fittings on a 90 degree el fitting?? John and Maryann Legacy III

Re: Stus-List Fuel Tank Replacement

Thanks Joe. I thought of trimming tank upside down after I posted. Good suggestion. I am not sure about the ground going to the fuel gauge. I thought the purpose of this ground was static electricity dissipation from tank and metallic filler intake from the fuel nozzle and fueling. The send

Re: Stus-List Fuel Tank Replacement

You will need to trim the 90 degree rubber hose to have one side only long enough to go onto the tank to clear. If the tank inlet itself needs trimming, I would do it upside down and then shop-vac the tank. The grounding connections will now go to the ground part of the fuel gauge connection. J

Re: Stus-List Fuel tank replacement

I scoped the fuel tank inside (after pumping out old fuel) and outside with an automotive inspection unit with LED light before putting Tapestry into service. The exterior was pristine and the interior without pitting. I would do the same prior to replacement, or without access to a scope, obtain

Lots of folks have been talking about fuel tank fill and advising a 90 degree intake for simpler hose attachment. SLY has two fuel tanks, one plastic under the cockpit where the original aluminum one was with a straight vertical intake hose connection, plus another stainless tank forward under

Look at the Moeller web site, they have a huge collection of tanks. I seem to remember there is one which had an angled in fill on a corner which was a little big for my boat, but may fit yours. There is also a site called "fuel hoses" or similar with all sorts of fittings including elbows - it ma
