Hey guys - I know this is an old thread, but I've been following. I have a 06 340 with same issue and thinking about at some point doing the FP solution. In the meantime I'm hoping that nav lights are operational when needed and thinking about backup solutions to use in a pinch. I think...

Uggh! I've been checking it wrong. I just bought the boat this year and plan on changing this fluid/filter here before the off-season but this is helpful - thanks a lot for the response!

Bought new 12v 1w festoon replacement bulbs for Perco cockpit lights 12v 10w. The lights work in one of three of the fixtures. Old bulbs work in all fixtures. Any suggestions on troubleshooting?

Thanks! Stealing the wife's hairdryer for this caper may be my next challenge ;)

Any advice on how to make the barbed fittings to the hose easier. Replacing the wire reinforced hoses to my AC raw water intake. Getting these lines off the barbed fittings wasn't easy, I suspect putting them back on won't be a treat either. I have some boot lube I use for water ski boots...

Thank You!

Thank You!

Will shut off the valve ASAP and replace! Thanks for advice on wire reinforcement.
