Just had to replace one. Bought the pump from a DD dealer. I was shocked at how cheap it was. Right about $200. Also, it helps if you have an...
Took a closer look at the picture . On my Ocean the setup is very similar but where the bypass tube (didn't know there was such a thing) is...
What I think you are describing is exactly how I described the feeling when my system was low on oil before I rebuilt the helm pump and steering...
My hunch would be that if you don't have brushes on the shafts (and to my knowledge unless they were installed by a previous owner) you don't ,...
Can't tell you specifically about 1989 but I have a 97 and it's solid fiberglass below the waterline and cored with Divinycell above the waterline.
I've replaced the turbo on my 1997 671 TIB and understand that it needs to be pre oiled which I'm able to do by pouring some oil in the oil inlet...
Turbochargers direct has them on their website but man are they expensive!
On my 1997 45 fill is in the same place as yours. Tank is on centerline under stairs. Access point for hoses is under bed in guest stateroom.
Oceans are notorious for having window leaks. Mine is a 97 so similar to your 95. I had leaks where water appeared down below in one of the...
I'm not familiar with that model Ocean but I can tell you that water collecting in one spot can come from quite a distance away. If you don't...
I have a Pronautic 1260. Not sure about the rest of the numbers you mentioned. Anything in particular you want to know? I'll be on the boat...
Is your head fresh water or salt? Any other through hulls in the boat that would allow a leak to run to that area of the bilge?
Egg Harbor Yachts in Egg Harbor City, NJ have them. Just the script part, not the oval and I believe they're plastic, not metal. About $225 for a...
I have a 97 45ss. I feel a little stupid asking this question but I'll ask it anyway. My pumps are all on a type of breaker that keeps it from...
Found a way to get it done without pulling the exhaust manifold. Still had to remove the exhaust elbow. All it took after that was long arms and...
On my 1997 45SS it's almost impossible to change the raw water pump impeller. Generator is a westerbeke 8BTD. Last time I replaced the impeller I...
Can't speak specifically to your model but a 1997 45SS uses a seastar BA175-7TM.
I have a 45 with a 15'2" beam and I'm right about 12 at the transom.
On my 97 45' it's under the hatch in the galley floor.
There's got to be somebody near you that builds towers and t tops that can weld one up for you. Won't be cheap though.
