The Modern Fuel System - Episode 102

Good job drilling 👊 I learn stuff all the time, mister. Good stuff 🔆

[@TMFS4659]

I’ve been a tech for about 6 months and your videos help me to learn before actually being exposed to the issue in real life. It’s very helpful! Keep up the good work

[@JustinLeeMarine]

Thank you and good luck. It's a fun field to go into.

[@arcomile1488]

I have a question about fuel Justin. Why does it cost so damn much? KEWK. Keep up the great work. I enjoy your videos.

[@JustinLeeMarine]

I think you are on the wrong channel for that answer🤣🤣 and thank you. 😊

[@TMFS4659]

Oh and it is very strange feeling drilling through new boats! Especially below the waterline

[@JustinLeeMarine]

I have done this for a long time and I always get a little nervous drilling holes.

[@larryjohnson5597]

Nice work,I see pursuit is using plastic fuel tanks can I use one for diesel ??

[@JustinLeeMarine]

Yes. Just make sure it's for diesel fuel. Different companies make them.

Hello Justin Lee, how are you? One of his favors is that the boat that I am riding is an Intrepid and I have a panda 8 mini generator that is damaging the capacitors as it damages them because the resistance relay is stuck, how do I solve it?

[@JustinLeeMarine]

Let me make a phone call tomorrow and I will get back to you. I want to make sure I answer you correctly. Thanks for the question.

[@cristianrr6771]

ok Justin thank you very much for your cooperation I will be attentive to your answer Justin

[@JustinLeeMarine]

So first of there is no such thing as a resistance relay. I think you are talking about the boost relay. If the boost is stuck it will not cause the capacitors to be damaged. That would just cause it to overheat after running awhile from overcharging. There are only a few things that will do that. The stator is starting to go bad or has started to ground itself(would need to be tested). Also if the wire harness is somehow shorted to ground somewhere on the generator. You are going to have to do some tests on the genset to find out what is happening. Sorry it's not a simple fix.

[@cristianrr6771]

ok Justin maybe I wanted to say relay to this part that is in the metal box that says high voltage, two capacitors have been damaged to be clear I can send you a video of what is happening with the panda generator

[@JustinLeeMarine]

I would be happy to watch the video but I can not guarantee I will be able to tell you what's wrong. Most likely you will have to get the multimeter out and start testing components to see what has happened or where the problem lies. Send it to my email and I will watch it when I get a chance. Thanks 😊

You should probably edit out the part where you use your credit card to get fuel.😬

[@JustinLeeMarine]

I actually thought about that but you need two codes use it and it only works for gas. Good catch. I was wondering if anyone would say something. Thanks for watching.

[@drfeelgood212]

@@JustinLeeMarine Good point. I’ve just had mine number stolen to many times.😉

[@JustinLeeMarine]

Thanks for looking out for me. If you ever see anything or have any questions dont hesitate to say something.
