Hi. my name is Aaron and Romi is my boat's name.
I have the boat for about three years and I use it only in summer time. The boat is catalina 27 with ATOMIC 4 DIESEL ENGINE. model 5411. I live in Centerport NY and I keep the boat in Huntington Harbor. I had hard time starting the engine after the winter for the first time, but once it started, I had no problems for the rest of the season. Unfortunately, this time the engine did not start and I think that the electric fuel pump is not working. If somebody familiar with this engines and can help me, or know a mechanic that can help will be greatly appreciate. Thanks |

It's a universal atomic diesel not a universal atomic four diesel engine. When I looked in Google there was a lot of good information on troubleshooting the engine. I sure there are some Afourians that are familiar diesel engines. Maybe they can help.

I activated the glow for 30-45 seconds.
I cannot hear the "tic tac" sound of the electric pump. this is the reason why I think that the pump is not working. I never run out of fuel and I do not see leaks, but it is possible that the filters need cleaning. I will buy new pump and hope that this will solve the problem. Thank for the advices. Will let you know new developments. Thanks |

Before you buy a new pump check, with a volt meter, to be sure you are getting electricity to the pump.

Following John's check, if no power to the pump look for an inline fuse holder in the circuit.
