View Full Version : waiting out the Volvo mechanic
At least he's gonna be standing on clean bilge boards. I am thinking of renaming the boat to "some day". ;) Cheers gents.
It turns out it was a cracked a fuel filter base and that's where air was entering the fuel system. My mechanic couldn't figure it out and called in the master mechanic. Once the engine just about came up to temperature, the crack would open and that would let air into the system. Some days it pays to have a Swedish Master Mechanic for Volvo helping you out. Today was one of those. Just as soon as the CG takes down the small craft advisory, I plan to make a test run. I don't have a pic yet, but those bilge boards look great on the boat. Faith helped me clean up the bilge yesterday.
Ah yes, ready for sea again :) Problems like that are nasty to find. As Ray about the crimped fuel line on his Albemarle.
After I get the right hip replaced on June 1, I'll have to come down and check out the stainless hip and the new yacht :D
