Proud new owner

[Brian Meineche]

Hello all

I just got a 1978 f233 h as a gift. The boat looks to be in great shape and has been docked in shade for over 2 years. I have been looking for an owners manual (with no luck). The gas tank (original 90 gallon I believe) has been empty for that time and I'm somewhat concerned with corrosion and sediments after that period of time. If anybody has any suggestions or help hints I'm all ears.
Thanks,
Brian

Congratulations, you have found a jewel.

Some people left the fuel tank full to prevent water condensation , if they use any fuel stabilizer should be OK, yo can add one of many fuel restorer´s and test

Thanks guys, Things are actually moving along. I'm hoping to get the boat out of the water today and start replacing parts. The engine sounds really good, but there is some corrosion on the drive etc.
