I definitely like the idea of getting the inverter out of the engine room! I fried my previous inverter with reckless water spray. That closet...
I have three 8D batteries powering my inverter. For some reason the PO used dual purpose batteries. At a minimum I’ll be switching to deep cycle...
It’s just a theory. My other theory is, boat.
Yes a previous tech installed flange nuts instead of the spec’d combination of nut+spring washer+washer. This was the same person who wired my...
I think I’m gonna call this quits. The more I look at these studs I think at least the bottom one is actually broken off inside the turbo housing....
Well it should come as a surprise to no one that you were right Ralph. Once I could get in and get a closer look I found two of the four studs on...
I don't see how the cooler inlet could have moved since it's got six bolts holding it on but I take your point. What's extra weird is that I have...
Hey folks. Family headed to the keys for a quick Christmas vaca. Boat was running great until just north of Stuart we heard a sucking/whistling...
Searching a bit more online I found a thread from 12 years ago where someone had the exact same problem- even saw deterioration on a new pump...
On the road now but will check on both these questions. It seems if there was an interfering bolt more teeth would be broken. In any case, i think...
The plot thickens. I just removed the raw water pump from the other engine, and it has the exact same damage. One chipped tooth, and a wear...
I doubt the new air filters are your problem but if you want to rule them out just take them off and run the boat. Make sure your engine room is...
I’m gonna start this project shortly. Considering starting with a CPES since it’s a window frame. Wondering if this is necessary on the interior?...
Sounds like I should try a new diver
I have a dual purpose saltwater wash down/livewell pump but I don’t recommend that. You really want a low pressure high flow pump for the baitwell...
These have all been done by a diver, or me holding my breath in the middle of a trip when i realize they are gone or have come loose. So is it...
I’ve been struggling with keeping my shaft zincs in place. Never had the problem with other boats. I’ve tried the 4 bolt and the 2 bolt zincs and...
Before boatdeisel went offline there were lots of threads about similar problems. The problem I had was the neutral safety switch not allowing one...
Not sure how much you fish but the on deck poly live wells are hard to beat for cost and convenience. I keep mine inside one of my (huge) deck...
This doesn’t directly answer your question, but if you want an excuse to get another tool you could grab an earth leakage clamp meter. These...
