Got her running. Secondary filter wasn't full enough. Top it off and pow she runs.
Unfortunately there is no priming pump on these old girls. Racors are full, but I think I'll pull the secondary and double check it.
I know it's in here somewhere, just can't find it. My motors are DD 12v71TI's. Changed the racors and secondary filters on both engines. Port...
Exactly!!!!!!!!
Surprised to hear that boat doesn't have an oil transfer system. Or does it; just not part of the transfer system?
That's a good one.
Shooo, that is really tough on an engine idling like that. In addition to Capt J's good advice, I'd also suggest changing your oil twice as often...
Need one to strip bottom paint.

Hey Ralph, yes used a cf-2 oil. We are back in SC now. I'll go back down to the boat in another week or so. Perhaps we can get together while I'm...
The gauges in the ER are all mechanical vs the bridge which are all electric. I trust the ER gauges more than the bridge.
Finally able to look at this tonight. Changed the oil this morning and found it to be overfilled by about a gallon. Also adjusted the lever. It...
Ralph re the filter cartridges available at NAPA? If s, do you have the part #?
I'll check all these things in the morning. Thanks for all your inputs. I'll let you guys know what I find.
That's where they are when cold and engines off. When I checked them tonight, hot, and engines idling, they were still an inch or so over the full...
