Funny, the 265 I bought a couple years ago started in FL and ended up in CA, then to WA where I bought it.

Yeah, typically. But the aux gets most of the fuel since I haven't been able to put many miles on the main before it cuts out from the filters. The last run was about 30 miles on the main.

Also, this is only on the main tank. Haven't had any issues with the aux tank

Tanks will be coming out after the season for sure.

Circling back to this. I'm sure I'll get some negative feedback for this, but it is a short term fix. I removed the screens from the pickup tubes and installed an inline filter just outside the tank where the fuel line goes into the tank. Makes it easy to see the debris and a lot easier to...

I took out the OP for some tuna fishing this last weekend on my boat. Was a nice ocean, but he still got to experience how well it does in some of the chop we had coming back in. But he also got to experience the kinda known issues on these, the quirkiness of being in following and quartering...
