The issue the pumps I'm speaking about have had is that even though the pumps were below the waterline, the hose going to them had a slight loop...
What about the emergency backup controls? Do they operate? If trying to start the port engine causes the stbd engine to stall, then it sounds...
It sounds to me that the a/c pump is slightly above the waterline and that the builder or yard put the anti-siphon valve as a supposed quick fix,...
I agree also, and also feel that 30 years is a long life for a metal tank in any sportfish.
Connect the two wires together on the sender (on top of the tank inside the rear cockpit deck hatch, see if the gauge pegs. If it does not, it's...
I had the exact same issue on the same Volvo's. It turned out to be bad air filters. Try removing them completely and running the boat (make...
Post is a pretty well built boat. I would say that it's bottom configuration is not as good for very rough weather as a comparable size Bertram...

If your boat is equipped with an automatic halon type or other type fire system, make sure the system isn't malfunctioning and shutting everything...
I manage a yacht with 1100 common rails, checked the coolant a few weeks ago before a trip and started the engines, the alarm went off with low...
I know nothing of the current strikers or Sedef. However, I did manage, maintain and run a 1991 58' striker SF many years ago. Solidly built...
He just said to email striker though. It wasn't over the top like a lot of the other brokers/manufacturers have been on here.....
I have never been on a '75, but I have been on a 2007 and 2-2001 68' FB's and they all had a tiny galley, the 58' seajet I manage has a tiny...
