I did a 6 week charter on a large sailboat with a Siberian Husky as one of the guests, never again. I am just about to embark on a trip that will...
That's a fairly good statement but given the problems this guy has had so far he might not have any hair left.
Didn't this problem apply to the 440 Hp engines and not the 315's?
The Yanmar powered one might be the best way to go given the area you will operate it. It would be a shame to lose boating days waiting for some...
I remember the term Fuel Squeezer but never saw one in a truck or anywhere else. I wonder when that PDF was produced. A 100,000 mile oil change...

Its got the same bore and stroke as a CAT 3056 at 3.94" x 5.0" The last one of these 3056's I worked on which was an emergency genset had the...
What survey do these boats actually have to pass and how often are they surveyed?
Can you put a loop in the discharge line to perform the task that will eliminate the chance of any non return valve failing in the future. A...
I grew up with dogs and cats, have not had a dog for many years but plan on getting two of them when I stop work so they can chase two unwanted...
In that case you will either have to be patient like the rest of us or start rubbing your crystal ball.
