Hi- And again, thank you for any suggestions to this Trawler Newbie.
Re: 1990 Marine Trader Aft Cabin
I have a slight Starboard list- about four degrees.
I have two 350 Gal diesel tanks in the aft cabin, under the beds
I have no fuel gauge - to tell what's full or not
I have never yet added fuel- as she remains docked
I have read that this may be due to a fuel balance issue and that I may need to either open one valve or close one- to equalize them.
I have NO idea where these valves are- or what positions they (or it) should be in.
I have considered ordering some fuel for the Port tank, in case the prior owner only ran off of the Starboard tank before I bought her, but have also read that in doing-so, without adjusting the valve(s) first, I may be adding to the problem.
Any thoughts on this please?
Thank you so much.
