The HP pump is inside the VST. You need to get an electrical schematic ( ie. Maintenance manual) to see where the power to the LP pump comes from. You really should not need a priming pump.

Apparently they do not make the same model exactly like mine but it seems when I looked it up the “pro tournament 360 4 bank” is very similar. It seems mine was a 300 4 bank. I have a NOCO three bank on my small boat which charges 2-12V lithium iron phosphate and one 12V lead acid. I believe it...

When I replaced my original guest charger on my 330, I spoke with the engineers at Pro mariner. They recommended a four bank charger for two parallel banks with four batteries. One bank for each battery. The new smart chargers can tell the difference between a parallel bank of two batteries and...

I would bite the bullet and replace the entire system with one that requires no rudder feedback. I just changed the course computer on my Raymarine by adding a newer course computer and did away with the rudder feedback device and will never go back. It works much better and holds a course...

My guess is that your motors are the older 3.3L F250s. If so, you engine has a much simpler VST than the 4.2L engines shown in the video. Still on the port side behind the intake manifold. but it only contains one filter. The LP filter is outside the tank between the LP pump and the tank.

What he said

There are three filters and the water separator in your system. The visible filter on the engine with the water float in it is the first. The next is between the low pressure pump and the VST. The third is inside the VST tank itself. Any one of those those filters can clog and create a problem.

I had 2 F250s 2007 one had the corrosion issue at 500 hours and four years. The other was scoped and good after 14 years and 1200 hours before I sold them.

What model motor, what type gauge, year, command link or +. GPS speed or pitot? Not enough detail to guess

Interestingly, I have a Seaark with a 33 gallon tank that has a different sort of cap that actually seems to pressurize slightly. Not sure of the mechanism but when opened it will burp a little somewhat regardless, it seems, of prior temperature changes. Like a car that has a sealed cap. I...

I had (have) the water issue with my 330. New o-rings, all good gaskets, etc. I even covered the fill ports with taped down plastic bags to eliminate fill port intrusion. New fuel level sensors and gaskets. No gas smell anywhere. If I keep tanks full, 350 gallons, extra ton of weight, then...

Engine hours are stored in the ECU, not the gauge.

PLB is best as an emergency signaling device. Direct to CG no middle man. As retired USCG pilot, takes the search out of search and rescue! Down side is no non-emergent message capability. Upside No subscription required. I do mostly coastal so in reach is no better than my cell phone. I carry...

If swapping gauges, confirms it is a side issue and not a gauge issue, then you’ll need to understand how your Yamaha command link system is wired. It has a multihub that each motor connects to. A bus wire then transmits CAN data from both engines to another multihub at the helm. Your gauges...

Garmin usually has an in-line fuse in its power supply cord, not too far from where it connects to Power. That will be there unless an outfitter substituted a fuse of similar capacity on a panel or another place.

Aluminum and stainless do not play well together. The aluminum will corrode. If you can put rubber washers or some kind of synthetic non-conductive material between the two, it will last longer. I used phenolic washers/spacers on my aluminum boat when mounting anything stainless.

You will most likely have an in-line switch somewhere in the vicinity of your starboard gunnel, if that’s where your shore power outlet is. It is a galvanic isolator circuit to prevent electrolysis. That switch can trip and eliminate all AC power to your vessel.

I leave my stereo on while closing up the boat. If I hear music I know the batteries are on

Recommend you look at their competitor towboat US. They are owned by Geico and Berkshire Hathaway.

Since you won’t reuse those bolts, I wouldn’t worry about snapping them off. Worst case you could strip out the nuts, but snapping them off would make it easier to get off.
