Hi everyone; When we turned on the generator this morning after having disconnected the shore power, we did not have any power at the 220 main panel. Other than the relay that selects the priority of

Vladimir, Very happy to help. Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any other questions. And Merry Christmas to you as well! Dave sv Air Ops Maramu #104 Sea of Cortez Mx (but unfortunately

Dave, Thanks a lot. Merry Christmas! Vladimir SM#345

Thanks every one for the suggestions. We decided to flush with Diesel 4 times and then with 10 weight oil 4 times just to be sure all the water and the diesel is cleaned up. Decided not to mess with

Trevor The alternator turns whether the engine is on or off unless you put the gear lever in reverse while sailing. Remember the warning 'Never put gear in forward' while sailing. So, while sailing

Vladimir, CAT pumps in the 240 and 270 series are appropriate for the high pressure pump but I bought a similar pump from General Pump: part number WM4215S. It’s a plunger pump that can deliver 4.2

Good evening all, I am trying to become educated on the shaft altenator on my 1990 Santorin. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Assuming this is connected as designed and

Vladimir, Anytime before mid Jan. or after Feb.1 would be fine . I will send address , We are a little over an hour from you. Pat

Mohammad, I add diesel to fill up to the sight bowl and then run the engine in gear for a few seconds - obviously, have a helper on the ground to be sure no one gets near the prop. Repeat if necessary

Mohammad, I would not recommend this unless you are sure how the shaft brake works... The brake is normally ON. The brake is turned OFF by hydraulic pressure from the transmission. The transmission

Thanks bill. Is there a way to unlock the shaft break so we can manually turn the prop from the outside to better clean ?

We are now hauled out and have drained the creamy oil. I would like recommendations on how to best clean the inside of the gear box before adding the new gear oil so that we can remove as much of the

Paul: This outfit has stud mount wire lead run and start capacitors that are a fit for the various Amel motors and Air Conditionings systems. I suspect they will ship to Grenada. Worth a look.

David, I plan to use DESSALATOR components if I can. If some components are no good, I plan to substitute them with commercial items. Spare parts from DESSALATOR are expensive. Most likely my

Oops, should have read all my emails first. I see Vladimir has a good solution, best of luck! Dave Wallace sv Air Ops Maramu #104 Sea of Cortez, Mx On Dec 22, 2016, at 3:50 PM, Dave Wallace

Vladimir, I second Bill’s suggestion to build your own. Our Maramu had no water maker so I went that route. Manual controls, 35 gallons/hr, total cost about $2600. They are really quite simple if

Pat, Thank you very much. I would like to pick it up as soon as it is convenient for you. I plan to assemble and check it at home. Please let me know when it is OK for you. Please give me your
