Hello.
I have no idea about engines. Actually the only thing I know is my motor and leg is really old and worn out. Been spending a lot of money on them its killing me.
Now the mechanical says both fuel pumps need to be replaced. I had no idea the engine had 2 fuel pumps. He also says to get to them the engine need to come out. Now that seems like madness to me.
Seem I really need to get some lessons on doing these repairs myself or I might get divorced.
Could anyone confirm the engine really does need to be removed or can I get in there with small hands and a long tool and replace them without needing to do that ?
BTW : I have a 2004 SeaRay 260DA in AU is called a 275.
Mechanic has said this is what needs to be done ;
Fuel tank drain clean and flush
Engine removed, low pressure fuel pump replaced
High pressure fuel pump and cooler system replaced
Injectors out tested and cleaned or replaced
Pressure regulators replaced
