My cousin just purchased a boat with an aluminum fuel tank leak. A company out of NJ came out. They pumped the tank out. Cut an access panel in...
Thanks. We're really looking forward to using her. She has 3196's, about 1450 hours with the aftercoolers reworked last summer.
The lectro-scan is the old version. The new one is the electro-scan. Either one will work with fresh water but you will need more salt in the...
Well we bought it! It is a 1999 Symbol Pilot house. The broker listed it as a 557 but the name plate in the wheel house says 558. Just...
Thanks. that's very helpful. Should know by Tuesday if I'm getting the boat.
I'm looking at a 1999 58 pilot house. Do you know if the coring is balsa or foam? Seams earlier models were definitely balsa and later models...
I'm fine with a using a "good" buyers broker. If I was buying a house I'd find one that knows the area and go through them to buy the house. I...
I'm currently looking to move up to a 1990's 48-54' sport fish. I've got a pretty good idea of my price point and requirements. I'm located in...
Well I guess that answers the question of whether or not IPS drives raise fish. Any details? Were they hooked up with the shark and it went...
When I worked at a steel mill we could buy 6" square bars and heat them enough (2000F++) to compact them into 9" rounds cheaper than we could buy...
If you are installing Auto-off-on switches on those pumps you can wire a Red LED in for run status and a Green LED for power. I like to install...
I see a Spanish tug shadowing them and another search and rescue tug looks like it is headed to a rendezvous point with them. It may just be they...
Looks like they can't decide. Since they took it in tow they towed south west (toward Bilbao), turned almost east, turned back to south west and...
I think we'll know shortly. They are now in 1271 fathoms and still headed away from the coast.
Looks like they are towing it to deep water now. Haven't seen any updates but they are headed for 1000+ fathoms right now. Don't know if they...
That's a pretty large (and modern) vessel to just sink without the crew knowing why. Wouldn't it have had alarms and watertight compartments?
The check valves are usually attached directly to the block just above the oil pan. But it doesn't need to be. They are somewhere between there...
That does look like a custom airbox drain. Any container will do. If so it will have incredibly dirty oil/sludge in it. the line(s) leading to...
Look on youtube for a video of how to test a DD or Detroit Diesel injector. It's not hard at all. I'd post a link but I'm not sure if it is allowed.
Since we know the following : All boats should have a galvanic isolator or isolation transformer to protect against electrolysis. I am assuming...
