I have had my Navman fuel monitor for three years now with intermident problems througout the seasons. The symptoms were fuel starvation when I would try to get up on plane. I have it installed as Chuck described as far as order but physically the fuel sensor is slightly lower than the fuel filter, it is still like that but the boat is out of the water now. I have replaced any clamp I could find in the fuel system including inside the engine because my assumption was the in line monitor was putting a strain on all the connections causing an air leak. After that I would still have problems occasionally. This season I had to replace my VRO because the diaphram was ripped, I chalked it up to old age because the motor is a 96. Did the Navman fuel sensor cause a strain on the fuel pump and rip the VRO diaphram?????? Maybe.
The unit has been great for keeping track of fuel but the problems suck. I am seriously considering disconnecting the thing and keep track of fuel the old fashioned way. The reason I bought the thing was to avoid fixing the FOUR fuel guage senders on top of the Four tanks on my boat. Any other stories or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
