Stus-List Tank selector manifold

Josh I'm not sure if what I got was Gilmore, but I had to replace one and used a garden 4 to 1 from the hardware store after combing the marine supply sources. The mating problem with the hose threads was solved with a set of brass fitting from the hardware store with female std hose threads o

Re: Stus-List Tank selector manifold

If I recall correctly, each tank on my LF38 had its own plastic valve and the lines were merely tied together in a plastic 4-way tee fitting just aft of the mast. The fourth line form the tee was led to the pump inlet. Of course all the original piping was grey and there were leaks in many pla

Re: Stus-List Tank selector manifold

Fred: That's a good idea--I will make a blogpost on the manifold system. I have to rip out a leaking water tank anyway and I should be able to get some good pics but it will have to wait until I am back in the water (about a week from now)... Bob On May 28, 2015, at 10:34 AM, Frederick G Stre

Re: Stus-List Tank selector manifold

Bob — sign me up, too. Maybe you could just post the pics on your blog, and we can all see them. I’m interested to see how things are plumbed on the newer LF38s; my 1979 (hull #9) still has most of the original plumbing, and it’s pretty primitive… Time for replacement. Fred Street -- Minneapo

Re: Stus-List Tank selector manifold

Josh, Though certainly not as elegant looking as what came with the boat, you could probably use something like this: http://www.moellermarine.com/sites/moellermarine/files/033304-10.pdf All the best, Edd Edd M. Schill

Stus-List Tank selector manifold

Hey folks, I'm looking for a tank selector manifold for at least 3 freshwater tanks. The PO must have been looking for one too because he chose to use a Gilmore garden hose spliter (1 to 4). Unfortunately the copious amounts of teflon tape he used to stop leaks from the hose thread to NST of the
