Re: Fuel injection for Volvo AQ271

My new motor package I ordered fuel injection ($1100.00 option)and heck yeah it makes a difference. Mine was throttle body from V/P and it is the cats a__. A few things change from the way you are use to doing things. The fuel pump is now electric because of the pressure, Also in V/P the fuel pump is water cooled and gas is recirculated within its self.The boat is easily started, very responsive, and very fuel efficent. (72 miles off shore turning 3400 rpm's plus trolling all day was 67 gallons of fuel in a 27 foot eastern with duo prop). If it's in your budget jegs has a marine kit I think in the 900.00<br />range.

Thanks Charles<br />The Holly Marine injection looks like it would be the go. Has anyone on Iboats had one installed on a V/P and if so what were the results? Mine is a 91 year built AQ271. <br />Many Thanks Nick

Re: Fuel injection for Volvo AQ271

You may want to post this in a new thread instead of bringing a 6 year old thread back to life. Peeps tend to get confused what the issue is when there is more than 1 issue to a thread.

So welcome aboard. Lots of great people here to help.
