Agreed, but again, these engines aren't "time bombs" with unobtainable parts or tech talent. Key here is the history of the cooler issues being...
I'm going to go out on a limb here and call it on the injectors or fuel cooler. Buildup in the exhaust water during idle running during docking,...
Maybe. But replacing an aged system that still works is also preventative maintenance covering the burden of deferred maintenance costs. Now if...
Agreed. Pantropic is poison. The post quoting your sources of input reads a little over the top, perhaps, with a bad singular opinion. These...
Upgrading an appliance is often tantamount to investing in deferred maintenance on the depreciating value of the original appliance. Write the...
Who was the "Caterpillar factory trained and certified technician"? You should be able to get the seller to provide historical engine history as...

Yes, as it did for me, too. And the installation concept still allowed pretty easy access for major maintenance in the ER or on the engines...
Good stuff. I focused my sub-floor insulation with thermal insulation and perforated aluminum sheets to resist heat transmission and relied on a...
Keep in mind the time in the future where you'll need the major overhaul. That floor will need to come out. I did a similar salon in full length...
And perforated aluminum is the better choice for this, as opposed to stainless. Aluminum will absorb more heat more quickly and cool faster.
SoundDown in Ft Lauderdale can provide you with their dense rubber matting. Remove the wood flooring, cover the floor with the rubber matting,...
Can’t dig a small hole beneath the rudder? Or are you on asphalt/tarmac?
Yes, I rely on my thermal quite a bit for confirming markers in poor visibility as well as watching for other potential hazards. Very helpful on...
Pasccal, I have both an M300C as well as an M232. Both have ports at the base of the cameral for wired installations. If yours is still giving...
From a comfortable armchair distance, it certainly seems that even in the most crowded of conditions that the rudder could be detached aboard and...
