Overhaul Fuel Delivery on 1987 REVENGE 22
Posted: Sat Jan 27, 2024 7:28 am
Give me advice for running fuel hoses from the fuel tank to the engine [on a 1987 REVEVGE 22].
As seen in Figure 1, at the moment the are two small-diameter copper flexible tubings along the starboard side of the aft below deck livewell running toward the engine from the fuel tank,
I remember I read somewhere "no copper pipe on boat.”
Q1: what should I do now?
Q2: should I keep the copper tubing?
Q3: should I use stainless steel tubing?
Q4: should I use brass pipe?
The present fuel line rigging is:
Tank -> 3/8-inch hoses -> copper pipes -> hoses again -> engine.
I would like to add a fuel-water separating filter on the gunwale [upstream] of the engines.
ASIDE: Hi everyone,
I was here more often several years ago after I bought a fixer-upper 1987 Revenge 22. After a year working on it almost every weekends and nights, I got busy with family things and slowed down a bit. I can be back to it now, finishing it up as soon as I can.
