Where did I bring up the 41' Viking in this thread? But, the boat was a 41' Viking 1987 or 1988, it used to sit in Brielle, NJ in the summer then...
Solenoid is most likely bad. What happens if you give it power again, does it just run?
I have a customer that loved the same boat (type anyways) the lsx 75' and after finding out it had 4 engines and 4 pods, the thought of just...
What boat, props, and speed do you have on this ASD 12 boat, we just changed all the seals and serviced the drives also? I'm managing a 59' Baia...
Most 6-71 N's are generally known for going 10,000-20,000 hours before a major overhaul. 4700 hours for a 6-71 Natural before a major overhaul is...
I should have said height, not timing. I managed a large Hatteras Motoryacht for many years with 12v71 TI's (covingtons) and it used a 1.46"...
I understand that, but all of these companies marinized the engines differently. All of them used different fuel injectors, turbo's and other...
The 92's seem to do ok in boats where they cruise at 25 knots or higher. I managed a 1987 63' Ocean with 12v92's that went 6,000 hours before...
I'd wait about 6 months before doing that though..... let the paint off gas and cure for a good while first....
LEPKE- I don't think it's an unfair comparison, because if you're looking at a boat with 92's, the 92's only came with turbo's and either a lot...
This is different than your car comparison. The clear coat used is a paint. BUT, traditionally when you re-paint a yacht let's say with White...
A few years (2-4) that various friends owned them, they sold the boats after a few years. It's very common to do on bass boats/race boats and...
I'm telling you that that is the information on the remanufactured CAT 3126 brochure for both 375hp and 420hp (they had both prop curves, hp...
I have seen several people wet sand a faded gelcoat boat and then sprayed clear coat directly over it and it made it shiny again and lasted a while.
http://s121.photobucket.com/user/osd9/media/3126-TA420data.jpg.html It's showing 6 gph at 1200rpms for the propellor curve, yet every other...
No, from the propellor curve chart. I don't have the brochure in front of me, I left it on the boat, but picked it up from the dealer about 6...
I believe most all of the ones from 2005 with the electronic displays are very very accurate. But they use a calculation based on what the fuel...
This one was 72' U.S. Navy and had twin 12v71's Naturals. It only ran 8 knots (a touch less with current), perhaps that's the way the engines...
I've also found some of CAT's fuel charts to be very in-accurate at low RPM's. The 1 page brochure for the reman cats found in the dealership,...
Speaking of landing craft. I worked full time for an owner that had a LRC 72' with Natural 12-71's and the exhaust exited out the sides right by...
