Sorry, my bad. We use Delo 100 40 wt
I use Chevron Delo 400 30 wt
Nope, she just gave all she had over 21 years. I only fish Salmon and Halibut so no chasing or backing down like you refer to :) #2 cylinder...
Rebuilding this engine definitly puts off repower for foreseeable future. Rebuild will end up in the $75k + range. This includes replacing both...
I had been seriously exploring repowering at the end of the season. Now it is not to be. At start of last trip, got up to cruising speed and...
I guess sometimes you can't even give people what they want :)
I have a complete AP300 system I removed a few years ago. Been sitting in storage for two years. Worked fine when I removed it. I only changed as...
I have a 1994 54' SF (a Donzi z54). I would say $50k per year is only going to be after you have spent lots more getting everything up to par and...
As others have suggested, this is not recommended. When I bought my 54' Donzi in So Cal I contmplated running it up to the PNW or having it...
You should be able to replace a cylinder head with the motor in it's normal position. You only need to raise the motor up if you are dropping the...
$4,000 for cylinder heads? Won't use a rebuilt head? Find a new mechanic. I rebuilt a 12v92TA just last summer. My engines uses the exact same...
Thanks everyone for the great feedback. Maybe a bit more technical than I envisioned but I think I'm following the logic anyway. I can get MTU or...
Thanks. Great info and prety impressive numbers for such a large vessel. How manh hours do you have on the engines? have you had any issues with...
I'm looking for feedback on MTU 10v2000 M93 or M94 engines (1599 hp). I rceieved some useful feedback on another thread but it was a more...
Sounds like a good set-up. I'm not sure what tye of 3 strand you use, but from what I've always seen, a double braid has more elongation than 3...
If it were me I would not use 3 strand nylon, I would use a double braid. When tying to a mooring you want lots of elacticity. If the double braid...
Thanks. I've requested some info on those from the seller. Of course I'm always a bit skeptical of why someone would have removed engines that...
Thanks Lew. That helps. I was thinking the strut could be bored for a 3" so thanks for confirming. I hadn't thought about larger raw water intakes...
That's what I figured, I'm just confirming. Did you have 2.5" originally and went up to 3" ? If so, do you recall if you were able to use the...
Thanks for all the great info. I am aware the taper is the weak spot so that's why I assumed the splines would be here. I'm looking at diesels...
