If it’s the same guy I used he was a great guy to have on speed dial.

Ok I’m not convinced that the seal on the handle allows the racors to drain. On my twin racor 1000 both drain and hold vacuum without a drop evident anywhere. When I pop the tops I hear the air leaking back in. Where is the fuel going ? I have my supply and return selectors to where I assume...

The replacement filters I have come with a black and an orange oring , I use the black. Last season I redid seals balls etc on my twin racors after dealing with having to refill them before I could run motor. I was happy two see them full after two weeks of sitting unfortunately on the third...

I wasnt able to get to my boat. Maybe next weekend.

My racor 1000’s will drain below the fuel rail. There aren’t any isolation valves as I see some folks here have. There is no fuel anywhere to be found showing leakage. My fuel selector valves are set to off for supply and return. It was recommended to check the seal and float balls so I did...

I have raw water flush orig head giving me some trouble. The discharge pump loses prime and won’t drain the bowl. I replaced stator rotor and seal last week and still intermittently won’t flush. Raz was helpful and suggested running a hose from discharge side to a bucket to isolate any...

I’m thinking of replacing the packing in both shaft logs while I’m blocked up. My port side log/hose has a bit of a bulge and could have been over stuffed or over tightened. I have 2” shafts and think I read that I need 1/2” packing. On my previous boat I used the goretex packing and never had...

My starboard windshield was shattered by a clam dropped by a seagull and the center panel has a crack in a lower corner but the port side panel is good. I have been putting off resealing the three panels which leak during heavy rains so now I have no choice but to replace all three glass...

I need to replenish my fuel filter stock. I have twin racor 1000 and currently have 30m filters installed. My last box has a mix of 20m and 30m filters. Should I have a 20 in one and a 30 in the other? I also need to get the Eng mounted filters for fuel and oil also. Where’s a good place to...

Well my fridge finally gave up. I had to cut it up into smaller pieces to get it out. Now trying to find one to fit down the stairs with a 23 1/2” opening is proving to be tough. I’m looking for something big enough to fill the void and not require any or very little carpentry work. I have...

Winterizing 8V71Ti’s I have been hiring this out for 4yrs and it’s time I take over. How do folks here do it and I’m not talking about taking it to warmer waters. Some guys I see have rigged up a cap for the inboard strainers, some go thru the zinc port on HX and some hose up somewhere on the...

I’m about ready to replace my vent and pump out lines for both tanks. All three heads have all new lines to both tanks so from the tanks out I have old lines all cracked at every radius. is there one vent thru hull per tank or one for both? I did a quick measurement and it looks like the pump...

Just replaced my 1983 Le Marshe 32v charger with a sterling. The orig had fuses built in to the 100lb unit the sterling does not. Should I use a fuse or circuit breaker type ? This is for the DC side.
