So, as a partner for the Sea Ray Lake Erie Rendezvous... I'm still around and still an active boater in Lake Erie. Life got busy and priorities changed. They used to be an absolute blast and I really enjoyed meeting everyone the years that we hosted. I'm not opposed to trying to set something...
For closure... By blocking off the hoses we found the issue to be between the vacuum generator tank and the vacuflush pump. I removed the pressure switch and found staining under the seal which made me suspicious. I cleaned the sealing surface and the switch and re-assembled and my issue is...
Welp, capped the toilet hose and problem persists so that rules out the bowl so it's between the hose in the back of the bowl and the vacuum pump... The saga continues... Going to check the new pressure switch (again) as I rebuilt the old one with a new contactor to rule that out...
So I was looking on the googler and didn't see that you can loose vacuum without loosing the water... I mean at this point that's the only thing left... Just seeing if anyone else had any ideas Thank you!!!
Greetings all,
So a month ago my vacuflush started to cycle on every 5 minutes run for aprox 10 seconds and shuts off...
Things tried to date:
New set of duck bills
New pressure switch
New sanitation hoses (some looked deformed and slightly collapsed at turns)
Complete new vacuum pump and...
Yes, try and swap distributor cap 1st and even possible coil from one engine to the other and see if issue follows If it does then what ever you swapped I'd replace. Great boat by the way!
On my dancer there's access to the horns if you remove the speaker in the cabin mid stbd side. Not sure if yours is in the same location as it's express but worth a peak.
Well, can you switch the tanks and see if the fuel use goes to the different tank. If so then you're probably due for a carburetor rebuild as one engine is probably running rich. The tanks are also not the same sizes just as an FYI.

Good luck Doug... It's a nice boat for sure!
Mike Simonis sold me my boat many years ago... Was very happy with his service also!
I used to do this as well... It worked but I did notice that my air didn't work as efficiently as it did because it's pushing less water through my through hull. Just what my experience was that's all...
