Hello all,
I have twin df140s and the starboard one is having a strange intermittent issue. I had a fuel starvation issue and in diagnosing it found my fuel/water separator was letting air in so I replaced that. Engine ran like a top for a couple of weeks and then while cruising it died. I looked back and the primer bulb was collapsed/flat. I have replaced the bulb and even angled it so the ball wouldn’t fall and stick as I have heard this can happen. This bulb is the same that is on the port side so it can handle the fuel flow for these motors.
My boat is a cat CC with twin tanks so I guess this could be a venting issue in this one tank???
What else can cause this?
Thanks in advance,
Charles
