[QUOTE="200racing, post: 245811, member: 5383"] i had my folks me both days. since my mom is scared of her shaddow i couldnt go into leak hunter mode. i would just flip the bilge on while i was getting on plane and drain it out secretly 8). to today i went out looking for evidence and found the carpet was wet in the corner of my rod looker right by 1 of the fittings. [-o< im going to reseal it and see if that was it [-o<. from my yard i can have my boat in a lake in 10 minutes so friday i hope to go check the leak and :fishing: a little. i think i will step up to 5200 for the fitting since they cant short out for no reason like a made in china pump. i know filling it with water is a good tool for leaks; but with LW pumps sitting 1' off the bottom of the hull my bilge pump and all the foam laying on the hull. the fitting is off the bottom 6''+. it would be well over those things and huge load in boat and on trailer before it started leaking there..i really consider it the last resort.
