One time I had an issue with Detroits losing prime and it ended up being those priming pumps that are about the size of a soda can (touch larger)....
Usually on 3208 cats, I think you just hook a hose right to the dipstick tube and use that to suck it out.
Pick up a 1/2" thick 3'x3' fiberglass hatch, it's heavy.....pick up a 1/2" thick piece of laminated wood and it's a lot lighter...... look at the...
I agree it works well, I just did a delivery with it. The owner could even see the engine gauges on his ipad or cellphone. The only thing it did...
Maretron also has come out with a NMEA 2000 interface that can be used with their own display to record how many gallons used and gph, and it also...
I'd rather put 10 hours in on the ditch than 8 hours in a sea. Can walk around, grill lunch during long slow speed zones. A little more...
Yeah, but you don't go far in the waves you have usually, if you want to fish you run 5 miles. Different story if you plan on running 200 nm a...
It looks good so far. If you get through this season, I'd tend to leave it well enough alone. I've had a gear slip and need to be rebuilt. I've...
I would take it out and run it and see what temps are. Many things could cause a gear temp to get hotter at the dock, like a blockage in the raw...
Yes, the clutches can absorb fluid or moisture and swell. It is common if a gear sits without moving for a long period of time, like a winter...
Orpine is ammonia based and hammers the Awlgrip. I've seen Awlgrip boats lose their shine in 5 years after being religiously washed with Orpine....
Have you tried asking Raymarine? It's supposed to measure vessels movement. I would think the brow of the FB or it appears to be shaped to mount...
Just walk the docks around your area and I'm sure someone will be willing to take you out for free. Sailboaters are like that. You may or may...
A motor, such as a 800 MAN will generally burn the same GPH at the same RPM at cruise, no matter what boat it is in, provided they're both propped...
55-60GPH at cruise for both engines. 28-30 knot cruise. They're a good boat, well built and laid out, were a touch wet whereas the 48' fixed that...
They are very good and also who a lot of engine dealers use to clean their customers heat exchangers and coolers.
The best solution is pulling all of the heat exchangers and coolers and having them professionally cleaned on land by a shop that does that. Most...
Yes, I just installed 2 new Marine Elegance toilets on fresh water flush, and they don't normally store water in the bowl after flushing unless...
Just for the shorepower connection a single 50 amp 240 volt supply or shore power cable would be what I would normally recommend.
The aquatech boat wash is very mild, along the lines of Meguiar's gold or Awlwash. It does not strip wax or anything else and isn't ammonia based.
