I don't know the temp on 46, but I run autolite 26, which is a hot plug. Your boat looks similar to my Mustang. I can't tell from the flag on the front, do you have an intake scoop on the bow? Does the motor box have a vent on the back?

Tim,
Im not a ford guy..so I have no idea either! Keep in mind this is an inline six.. I did install a scoop on the bow, heres a couple of pics.. 
I also installed two smaller vents ,facing back, on the stern.. one vents directly into the gas tank area..the other runs thru a hose below the floor to the engine compartment. There are no vents on the engine cover... BTW... today when we had her out, it was bad...Im wondering if we could be getting any smell coming forward, below the floor, and up over the floorboard, under the bow ? I might try temporarily sealing that area off with some plastic? |

hey 62, instead of sealing it up to see of the fumes quit thereby letting you know if its coming from the floor why dont you run it without the engine cover, that way if you still get the fumes you'll be pretty sure its from the vaccum
- just a thought |

Steve I thought I saw a chrome vent on the front of the motor box in one of your pictures, maybe is just decoration.
Tim doesn't have anything intelligent to say so he just post dump ass pictures, guess it just a reflection of his own personality. |

chris,
I put the scoop/vent on myself. It is hooked up to a 3" vent hose,that I ran under the floor and stopped just below the front of the engine. I would have liked to get a couple of them...but no room on the bow . I also ran a 3" hose from the back of the engine compartment ,up to a vent on the stern of the boat. You can kinda see them in this pic.... 
I know it probably doesnt flow as much air as would be ideal, but better than the nothing it came from the factory with. There are no chrome / vents on the engine cover at all.. |

must have been the handle or another boat I got confused as the one your have trouble with. Wonder if turning one of the scoops on the stern around blowing air into one and out the other would help? are the bolt patterns symetrical so that you could give it a shoot with out drilling more holes. I would suggest the one with the hose going to teh motor box.

Chris, that is funny, talking about someone being intelligent or not. And you brag about designing parts for Cadillac and you misspelled cadillac the other day. Check your verbs.

I don't worry about spelling things right on this site it makes no difference, now if there was a speel check I would use it along with several others.
