Re: 07 trophy 2359 water issues
Hey Korossis , Thanks for the reply.
What exactly is the recall . My cap is a perko I believe , and the cap itself had no rubber gasket. I hope this is where the water has been getting in. I just replaced the gasket. When I first had 15 liters pumped out of the tank until it was just cleaning looking gas being pumped out. It rad for a few sea trials the bogged the water/fuel filter down. Had the tank pumped again but did not get much water out so installed racor with drain bowl. Boat ran for 20 min sea trial and had water in the racor. We decided there was just a little water left and to just keep a close eye on the racor and keep draining it off. Seemed like this was working as at first could not drive more than 20 min before draining water. Was soon able to go half day or so , then full day then 2 days on the water which was too much. Things were clearing up until a good rain storm when I seemed to get more water rather quickly. This time I took the carb and had it cleaned , there was water in it and some gunk build up. This is when I replaced fuel cap gasket . Have been running lots over the last week , goes great with the clean carb . Still getting some water through the racor but hope it s just some left over but just ran 2 good days of running around salmon fishing and had some pretty good build up , even had to drain off main filter . It seems like it improving though. Do you think it was just he gasket. What was the fix for you. When you say rear roof leak do you mean water leaking into the glove compartment above the sink on the inside roof. We had that and fixed it as the water was entering through a poorly sealed clam shell where the antenna wire came through for the radio. Any more info would be very heplful. Today I had the alarm which goes on when you have the key in the ignition stay on after I started and was running. Boat was running perfect , oil pressure ans temp. Do you no what the alarm could be seemed to go on and off like a loose wire . Otherwise I like the boat as its a big step up from the old one. There are things that are cheap and bother me though.
