Hi Guys. An extremely long gap between drinks! Barry suggested replacing the brass/bronze fuel line fittings with I assume stainless steel. But I...
Yep, if I can I'll include a stripper valve. It's a good idea.
Thanks for the feedback/discussion guys/gals (best be politically correct) I think I'm going to go with the existing design ie 90 degree brackets...
I've attached an elevation - roughly to scale -showing the tanks profile and taking into account your comments as much as I can. Because of the...
Quick question whilst I’m digesting what you’ve both said. Does it matter if it’s a poly or aluminium/steel tank. I’m thinking longevity and...
And I meant Barry!! Too may scotches.
Brian. You're a legend and if I were over there, I'd buy you a beer (or two, or wine, or a cuppa' tea). I will digest and repost. Cheers Andy
Hi Barry and Fallguy. It's taken me a while to re-measure and sketch out some options. I hope you're still around! To cut to the chase, I am now...
Guys. I'd prefer not to start cutting up the cabin sole if there are other options, but if that's needed I'll do it. I've stayed away from this...
Thanks very much Barry. That's really great information. I need to digest it then I'll post again if that's Ok? Cheers Andy
Sorry everyone for bombarding you with all my posts. It was easier replying that way. I appreciate and am taking on board your views. I said in an...
Hi Barry. Yes I do have pretty good access to the one side of the tank beneath the floor of the raised deck-saloon. I'm not thinking of hose...
I guess having an inspection port - which I'd want anyway - negates the use of poly tanks which I'd heard can't have them structurally?
Hi Gonzo. Are you saying no no bottom cross-connection because of the potential for leaking fuel? I'll try to get hold of the ABYC codes as they...
Apologies Comfisherman. I didn't reply. There's no other corrosion, poultice or otherwise. There was up to 1" of gunk in the bottom of the tank...
I think you have me wrong Fallguy. I'm not wedded to this "solution" at all but it was the one that seemed to have the most prospects of working....
Thanks for the lead. I'm trying hard to keep my mind open to all options!! I just Googled "Tankguard" which seems to be a Jotun product but it...
Thanks Mr Efficiency. I know I said originally that I'd prefer not to use an internal lining but I have to keep an open mind. Do you know if...
Not sure if your second sentence is a joke?!:) I must be very dim because I still don't understand why my proposed side inspection ports are an...
Thanks Fallguy. Why do you say that inspection ports are impossible per my drawing. I've shown one in both tanks. Cheers
