Tiara Open diesel in bilge
#5
so what happened was the water in fuel sensor went bad so I had that changed and both racors changed at the same time. After that, unfortunately I did not have any idea because I wasn't at the boat for a while it was several months later that we found out the diesel in the bilge problem. Now, we did have some really cold weather (for Orange Beach) where temps got in low 20's one night but heat was on in cabin and boat is in the water. I don't know what cold weather could do to a fuel system if any? I've cleaned bilge thoroughly and let boat sit for 2-3 weeks and now there is another very small sheen on bilge water? she is a 2008 and very well kept so I wouldn't think fuel tank (hopefully).
