Fuel Gauges Printed From: CorrectCraftFan.com Category: Repairs and Maintenance Forum Name: Boat Maintenance Forum Discription: Discuss maintenance of your Correct Craft URL: http://www.CorrectCraftFan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11949 Printed Date: September-29-2024 at 1:29pm Topic: Fuel Gauges Posted By: 69barri Subject: Fuel Gauges Date Posted: September-15-2008 at 8:43am I am in the process of re-doing everything from stringers up in my 1969 Barracuda and was thinking about installing a gallons per hour gauge. I know that Shur-Flo makes a good product but was wondering if anyone had any experience with this type of setup. Also I am looking to install these on my center console. It is equipped with twin 315hp Yanmar mechanical diesels. I have been told that you cannot install a flow gauge on these motors since the fuel going into the engine is not an accurate measurement due to the fact that there is a pressure side and a return side. I am relatively new to the world of diesels and would appreciate any input. ------------- 1963 Debonnaire Deluxe 1972 Separator Jet Boat Replies: Posted By: 8122pbrainard Date Posted: September-15-2008 at 9:16am Michael, How about some updates on past posts?

Sounds like your not going to be doing a original restoration on the Cuda. Sort of like your first choice of engines you wanted to put in the Debonaire!! ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete <
