Before I removed my metal fills and old tanks there was a white wire attached to a bolt on the fill, it went front there to the fuel selector switch and then terminated at the bolt that went through the hull and mounted the outboard. So essentially it was grounded to the motor and the water? I...

My old tanks were plastic but they did have fuel senders. That's what started this whole project for me, the duel gauge wasn't working. If in don't need to ground the fill they would be great but I'm pretty sure it needs to be grounded due to static electricity? Ill try and find more info also.

I ordered the Atwood that fits in the 3/4" hole. Decision made. Since I will be reusing the metal fills I have to go back and ground them. Do you know what size wire I need to use for that? The old wire was white but I threw it out I don't remember what size it was. Is white the correct color...

I just took a good look at my set up. There I plenty of height to make. Loop but when I test fit it the 5/8 hose kinked badly in that small space. I took the fitting out and there is a 3/4" hole. The non-flush mount Atwood version would fit in the 3/4" hole? This my be my best option.

You didn't waste anytime knocking that out! Looks really good. That is a big hole to cut though. Kind of scares me. My current Vent is below the rub rail so maybe I could get away with the smaller hole version? But then I guess it sticks out which could be a problem? I understand I would need...

Everything is coming along nicely. I filled all the holes from the old tanks, I installed the weld man foot loops I have all the hose and clamps and tanks ready to go. I am going to paint the floor with non skid to cover the new epoxy and re do the cockpit floor and under the tanks. As soon as...

I bought 2 of these and am still trying to decide if I am going to use them. I like them except for the larger hole that needs to be cut on the top side. http://www.jamestowndistributors.com/us ... part=53151 Thoughts?

Thanks for all the info guys! I've emailed Triton and another email I found under the manufacturer website. I didn't get a reply. Ill try a local sign shop and go from there. Thanks again!

Hi, I need to replace the C-Dory logo decals on the sides of my boat. I searched the site here and everything I found seems to be from 2008. I was wondering if there is any way to buy a set? I was thinking of taking a picture of the old one to a sign place and see what they say? Any ideas...

New tanks going in

It fit in the garage!

Thanks for the pics and quick reply. Mine is similar to your new one, its has 4 ports and the plastic bowl but the metal filter is much bigger on mine. Does yours fit above your tank? Do you have to push it further aft to clear the tank? Is it hard to drain the fuel,from the bowl if its that...

Thanks Sunbeam! My current separator won't fit above the tank and I'm not sure I want it out in elements. I would be curious to see what model you have and maybe I could put it above the tank on the starboard side. My other idea was to hold the tanks about 8" away from the side but I don't...

I'm getting ready to install my new tanks. The shape of the tank seems to be made to fit tight up against the side of the boat. The only problem with this Is my fuel water separator is in the way. I was thinking of moving the separator to the space in between the tanks. It would be easy to...

http://www.jamestowndistributors.com/us ... +Tank+Vent How about this? It eliminates the need for ground wires and also may solve the issue with water splashing into the vents?

Thanks. I understand grounding the fuel fill but the tanks don't have sending units, no metal at all. Seems like as long as the fuel fill cap is grounded I should be good? Is that the set up on the newer boats with the translucent tanks?

I'm cleaning up under where the old tanks were and got a better look at the wires. There is a white wire that is attached to the underside of the fuel fill cap is that part of the fuel gauge I don't need anymore? Or is it some kind of ground / static spark thing? Not sure, I want to make sure I...

I got her in the garage!! no exaggeration, it cleared the width by 1/2" had to let half the air out of the tires and take the horns off to clear the height and the motor is 1" away from the back wall and the tounge clears the garage door by 3"!!!! I pulled the old tanks out and began cleaning...

It really is fun! I have a feeling ill be spending a lot of money in the coming months! Tanks are ordered!

Wow! Awesome info! I can't wait to get started! As usual, thanks for the great help!! I don't have the fiberglass skirts that cover the tank so I may just turn the angle the other way. I like the idea of cutting a slot in it for the strap. Probably use a router. Great ideas!
