Re: F36 fuel tank replacement
Thank you I should be clear that the photos are from 3 or 4 different boats. The ones that looked the best were likely not mine. I got the photos from talking to one owner for advice on replacing mine. Thank you, Jay! The photos with the white engines in them are mine. And the rest are from others who consulted with me on replacing theirs. I should have more photos from at least1 more F36. I installed mine in early 2024, and I can think of 4 others that have done theirs since most were the original tanks (Mine was not) I will post more as I locate more photos. Two key takeaways: you do not have to pull the engine ( though it can make it easier and make the new tank 2" shorter in lenght, as it makes the install easier.
On another note How have you been Big D, hope you're doing well.
