Hi Guys. Well we spent a couple of days polishing the hull, launched the boat then ran 10 miles to our new marina berth. During the trip my engine fume alarm kept buzzing, my blower fans sounded like a bag of marbles. So Appart from cleaning the vents, I’m need some help finding new blowers (part number for my old girl a 86 340 express) and is it a hard job to change them out?
Cheers Rob
 
Easy job to do, just hard to get to them. Do you know if they're inline? You'll also need to know if they're 3" or 4" in diameter for the hose to connect. I'd just go to the boat and remove them first, that way you'll know what you have.
 
Hi Kevin,
Thanks I will check them out, I’m sure they are inline and 4” diameter.
Cheers Rob
 
4” inlines are easy to find and change as long as you can get to them in the bilge.
Google Attwood 4” in-line bilge blower.
You may need some hose too since sometimes they crumble if they are old.
Those are readily available too.
 
Thanks bud I will have to check them out!
