INSTALLING FUEL/WATER SEPARATION FILTER | FRONT HATCH | FULL BOAT RESTORATION - PART 13

[@douglasthompson2740]

Good time while installing the fuel filter to also install a fuel flow meter (FloScan was an early maker) now Faria makes a great one that fits the same hole as your old oil, water pressure gauges (right around 2 1/4") instead of the tachometer sized hole the FloScan used. Transducer is easier in the Faria as well. The Faria was $180 USD about fifteen years ago when I bought one. The FloScan in the mid seventies was $4-500.00 USD as best as I recall. They both give you gph real time, total used, gallons to go until empty, gallons left in the tank. Combined with your tachometer you can figure your best mpg if you are stretching a cruise. I understand some new high end outboards have all this in their glass gauge. Very useful diagnostic tool as well. Any sudden changes in consumption are obvious and let you know it. If you have a weird shaped tank as many boats do they can be invaluable as 1/2 in a v shaped tank is not a valid measurement unless the sender has been calibrated and most are not. This gauge always lets you know in real terms. Mine have always been accurate to within .01%. Enjoy your enthusiasm.

[@scotteverett1786]

Coming along nicely and your doing a great job. Is the tread tape ok to use in petrol?

[@AngryMackAdventures]

thanks a lot scott! i did read saying its resistant awhile back, and will break down over time but i have been using it for awhile now and never had a problem!

[@555paulie]

Top job mate well done from the uk 👍

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@scottmorley2491]

Hi mate I'm looking at a new hatch like your one for my fraser 626. Where did u buy that one from bud ?

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Hi Scott, thanks for watching mate! Ebay bud :)

[@hotemsalem3588]

I think you should do a budget build next like a small fibreglass boat for cheap

[@AngryMackAdventures]

hotem salem hey buddy haha I was thinking about the next project the other day, definitely something to keep in mind 😛 thanks for watching!

[@joepsaila2837]

[@Perez_Pesca_pfc]

Nice work man

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@obgmax1429]

What sonar transducer combo is going in ?

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Obg Max hey mate just a lowrance elite 7 then hopefully a 1kw transducer, that’s more then enough for me 😀

[@stewatparkpark2933]

The fuel bulb should be as vertical as you can get it so that the internal valves work correctly . Is that thread tape rated for petrol ? .

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Stewatpark Park hey mate thanks for watching, yes it was as vertical as I could get it, parallel to the floor :) Sure is mate!

[@maxsr3236]

Getting to the juicy bits

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Yeeww!

[@elvisshakey8867]

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Thanks Daniel, i sure hope so!

[@ongedre]

Nicely presented mate. New subscriber here! Looking forward to the next one. LITTLE TIP: If you're filming in your shed with the fluorescent lights, change the framerate in your camera settings. Will get rid of the flicker :)

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Thanks MAte and cheers for the sub! Yes that frame rate i cant seem to get right!!

[@richardwoodard8943]

Great videos guys keep up the great work and I wanted to ask I’ve watched a lot of your videos on fiberglassing when you were grinding and sanding the floor you were wearing shorts how do you keep the itch factor down?

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Hi Richard, i think after a week in the stuff i was immune to it :') nah you cant get rid of the itch, just tried wearing as much PPE as i could, but the itch cream was a savior some nights that's for sure!

[@ossstozzz4871]

This new comment section is different but ay m8 keep up the work 👍👍

[@AngryMackAdventures]

thanks mate!!

[@josztroutfishingdiary7350]

Nice Mack! Thanks!

[@boscbosc7039]

The bulb should be between the filter and the engine, not between the tank and the filter as described.

[@CRN8091]

Looking good 🤙

[@AngryMackAdventures]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@timalcorn2769]

Hope that tape is rated for fuel! It is supposed to be YELLOW tape
