Sorry for the vent. As you can see I've re-re-re phrased it. I've been getting lots of identical pushback on this and other forums. You say - start a new thread. I ask, Why? This thread is old and well distributed and referenced in the cloud making it appear at the top of the search list...

Thanks for the response. it's not the first time I've been on this and other forums under "older boat" topics and been notified "this is an old thread" Makes me wonder why people bother. To a searcher it's brand new information. There is a lot of interest in older boats especially in the...

Not sure what you are saying here. Do you realise your boat is over 18 years old?

Love my 1984 10' beam Sundancer 270 with twin 5.7 l 220 hp V8's. There are a number of these boats in my area - Phoenix AZ. I purchased one with a 15000 GVW tri axle trailer, 4.0 KW water cooled Onan generator, 9000 btu reverse cycle central air conditioning, pressure water, water heater. It's...

Had/have this same problem - Partial Solution: Turned out bugs had invaded and blocked my fuel tank vent - they to like the smell of gasoline. cleared the vent solved SOME of the problem. Filled the tank, drove the boat around, put it back on the trailer, put cockpit cover on, went to leave...
