- Replaced the R11T
fuel filter in the Racor 110A
.
- Installed a Moeller Primer Bulb 5/16″ Hose Barbs
in the fuel supply line before the Racor 110A.
- Tried priming the 110A with the bulb. Took far more pumps that I would have hoped.
- Finished priming the fuel circuit using the lever on the engine mounted fuel pump. Needed only about 200 strokes, in place of the usual 300.
- Ran the engine for several minutes at 3,000 rpm without issue. Clogging of the R11 was the problem.
-
- Disassembled the primary winches.
- Used the diesel removed from the 110A in changing the filter to clean the primary winches.
- Greased and reassembled the primaries.
