I agree, I've had the 1000 hour service done on a set of C18's (including all heat exchangers etc, required by the book, adjusting valves etc) the...
Consider this, the price of maintanence parts, the fuel burn 72-73 gph at 80% load with the MANS and 81gph at 80% load with the CATS (both...
I really like the Cat C18's and they're pretty much bullet proof. Also I would think CAT has a larger dealer network in Aus than MAN. Maintanence...
I agree, but the shareholders do vote on who is CEO and compensation and this and that. But like anything else, few shareholders actually vote....
The wiring cannot be that hard to figure out on a 43' boat. Just follow it from one source to another.
