Diesel delivered today

First time having a tanker drive to my slip and fuel up the boat. Pretty good experience and the cost was less than what I would have paid going to a marina. Next project is to change all fuel filters now that the tanks are full.

Be sure to put the rubber gasket in the right position on your secondary (the one or two on the engine) filters. There is an outer groove that it appears to go in but this will block the fuel flow. TA Diesel has clear directions on their website for Perkins.

When I fished charters we would get direct deliveries to the dock, always worked well. We got good pricing and one less opportunity for contamination.
