VIDEO: Two Common Chores for Diesel Boat Owners

ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 8, 2015 ‘“ They are the lasting workhorse of many a cruising or sailing vessel, the inboard diesel engine. Some say they have a reputation for being finicky while others swear by their never-ending reliability. Either side you choose, there are two common chores that the owners of diesel engine boats need to be able to easily perform. Changing a diesel fuel filter and bleeding the fuel line of air are topics shown in two new helpful `how-to’ videos by BoatUS Magazine. They can be found at:

`Bleeding a diesel engine of air is a misunderstood ‘˜black art’,’ said BoatUS Magazine Associate Editor Mark Corke, `But it’s very easy to learn when we show you how to do it.’ The videos are part of the magazine’s Practical Boater series that offers skills building, techniques and best practices to get the most out of boating.
