[C320-list] Yamar engine fuses and other questions

Art, 

 

If you have them, you will find the battery fuses inline in the red battery
cables about 12-18 inches from the positive battery terminals.

Over the Summer, I collected various C320 site e-mails dealing with issues I
felt it was better to understand before they might occur:

My boat is #680,  year 2000:

On the Yanmar engine fuse discussion, three fuses were identified,  I
located the two on the Port side of the engine located just behind the
alternator and in front of the started motor. I have not located the 3rd
fuse??? can anyone better describe where it is, what cable it is in and is
it a two prong fuse (newer style) or the older cylinder looking type??

 

2.  One discussion also mentioned fuses in the battery cable lines that were
pushed up under the shelf

overhang in the main cabin settee.   I had no luck in locating these either.

If in the lines.... approx. how far from battery terminal??

 

3.  So I do not have to rip out the Starboard Aft locker to see the fuel
tank: 

what material is the fuel tank made of ???...... one discussion of a failed
tank indicated aluminum.

 

Thanks,
