    fuel sender wiring

    I have not tried that yet as I have'nt had the motor on. What I have done is check for continuity between the negative battery post and the hull, and there was none. The same results betwwen the negative bus terminal and the hull. Once I get the motor on I will check it your way. Thank you.

    That makes sense. Thanks for the quick response. I just painted the boat today, so the last thing I neede was to rewire.

    fuel sender wiring

    I installed a permanent Moeller fuel tank in my aluminum boat. After thinking that I had all the wiring done I looked a little closer at the wiring instructions and they stated that I should run a wire from the sender to earth common. I do have one wire running from the sender to the fuel gauge...

    fuel/water seperator placement

    I don't know if it makes a difference or not,but I want to add a fuel/water separator and I I don' t know if it goes online before or after the primer bulb. So if someone out there could clear this up I would really appreciate it. I have a fifty horse outboard.

    Post a Pic of your boat!

    Here's my 1961left Alumacraft Queen 16. I've never had it in the water, so I hope it floats! These are the "before"pictures. In a few months I will hopefully have some "after" pictures.

    Its pretty simple, trim the pad to fit the sander. When it loses its effectiveness turn it over and use the other side. I have a sub standard repair on my left shoulder, and a fused right wrist, and this is a heck of alot easier and has better results than doing it by hand!

    A little intro. I recently bought a 1961 Alumacraft Queen 16. And I wanted to get some info on it so I tested Alumacraft customer with the HIM. And within two days they got back to me with everything I wanted to know about this boat. They even sent me a picture from a sales brochure of the...
