Just looking for a few opinions here. You guys have always been right on the money in the past.
I have an '89 Marlin that was in storage for a few years when I bought it. I pumped out the old fuel, added new fuel and had it professionally polished. I then filled both 150g tanks on the boat.
The aft or aux tank was plugged and not feeding the motors, so since the season was almost over I just ran both motors off of the one tank.
my mechanic took care of the plugged feed on the aft tank and pumped out over 20g of water. Tanks are tight (including over the sending units) as are the o rings on the fill. It was (and still is) fresh water so we don't think its the vents. Pretty confident that I took on the water at the gas dock last fall (who is now replacing his tanks)
I had been running one motor on that tank, but its frustrating to constantly have the motor die and then go through the drain & prime routine.
No problems when I run both on the main tank.
My mechanic is against using water-zord (or E-Zorb as it is now known) due to concerns about the alcohol (?) affecting the motor.
I've still got about 3/4 of a tank to go through and while I can live without the extra fuel for now, offshore season is not that far away.
Anyone have any problems with this (or similar) products? Any other thoughts or tips?
Thanks again
