Stus-List Fuel Pickup on 37+/40

[Tom Buscaglia via CnC-List]

I ran out of fuel 2x last season expecting 40G.  At each refill, once after a 
humiliating tow and another in our home harbor with a dinghy to the dock and a 
Jerry can run, the tank would only take ~25G.

Re: Stus-List Fuel Pickup on 37+/40

[Josh Muckley via CnC-List]

I've had mine out.  It is as simple as unscrewing the fitting coming off
the top of the tank.  It was just a straight translucent white plastic tube
extending down about 11.5 inches from the top plain of the tank.  The end
is cut at a slight angle and there is no filter or screen.

What is your indication of "running out"?

My fuel gage stops responding at about 1/4 tank and I believe that the
level sensor arm is bottoming out on a tank baffle so as to prevent it from
lowering fully.

Re: Stus-List Fuel Pickup on 37+/40

[Gary Russell via CnC-List]

I had a fuel problem with Kaylarah that dogged me since I bought the boat.
The engine would run well for a while and then die.  I had all sorts of
experts give me all sorts of opinions, but the engine would die.  If I left
it off for a few hours it would start up fine and then after 15 minutes to
an hour later, it would die again.  Finally, I discovered the problem.  A
previous owner had the hose from the tank replaced after (I suspect) the
interior wall of the hose started to disintegrate from old age.  The
particles or rotted rubber got carried forward into the elbow at the input
to my Racor filter.  As more fuel was sucked into the filter the particle
of rubber compressed and eventually starved the filter.  When the engine
was shut off, the particles decompressed and allowed fuel to flow again
(for a while).  Then the process would repeat.  I discovered the problem by
accident when I installed a fuel squeeze bulb in the fuel line between the
tank and the Racor filter to simplifying bleeding the air out of the system
during the multiple disassemblies to diagnose the problem.  I found it
difficult to force fuel through the filter with the bulb and discovered the
pieces or rotted rubber during disassembly. I cleaned out the elbow and
never had trouble again.  Good luck.

Re: Stus-List Fuel Pickup on 37+/40

[Bruce Whitmore via CnC-List]

Same thing for mine - there is no rubber tube in my tank.  

Any chance your gauge is off?

Tom,

Having replaced my sender unit not too long ago, I did not see any hoses in 
there. 



All the best,

tee and two shut off valves.  One side goes to the original drain and the other 
I put a hose barb on.  Let it rain for a few minutes attach a hose and then 
switch valve positions.  Your deck may not have scuppers like on the 37’.   In

Hi
Love all the great responses of this forum—thanks all!
Has anybody rigged up a rainwater collector? I’m not real sure about using the 
sails with all the crap in the air, but I’m happy to use a purpose-built 
plastic sheet tied to boom or mast or outrigger and funneled unto one of the 
water intakes on deck. 
Always trying to be a little more self sufficient since I’m a live aboard.
