Hi Davi, With only one engine water heat exchanging coil inside the tank you can only use either the propulsion engine or the generator; not both as their cooling circuits would be tied together. If

Excellent job! Changing timing belts on schedule is critical to avoiding catastrophic engine failure if one breaks in use. Anything to make it easier is really helpful. Bill Kinney SM160, Harmonie

After a coffee, some late breakfast and a bit more thinking time, I managed to get the old belt off without cutting it. I pushed a plastic card (credit card size) between the teeth of the belt and

Hi Group, Hope all are having great covid restrictions free summer. My new problem is that folding order (to main furler) does not reach the Solenoid (as I don’t hear the ‘Clack’), opening

Hi Brainstrust, The Volvo workshop manual details the process for changing the timing belt, requiring a bunch of specialised tooling. Mark Mueller from SV Brass Ring posted a fabulous summary of how

I have a tangentially related question I'd like to add on if I may. Running the main engine heats the hot water tank by diverting some hot cooling water into it's body. Has anyone teed the generator's

I can't comment too intelligently about this except to second parts4engines.com from the UK for perkins parts. Unfortunately because of Brexit, it's a bit more of a hassle to use them here in the EU,

Well, I managed to get my hands on a new sensor from George's Chandlery at Nidri, Lefkada. Great guy and an amazing Aladdin's Cave of a shop. I removed the old sensor by pushing down on the top with

Porter, The need for a regular return to absorption is less important for AGM than it is for Flooded batteries. With a flooded battery the acid can stratify over time. The more concentrated acid

HiPorter, Not having any great insight on AGM chemistry, even though I have had AGM batteries for more than a decade, I have ALL the charging devices on Elyse set to exactly the same Absoprtion and

Thanks Chip. I found a couple other threads where the job was done without removing the panel...now I can insist that the yard do it without removing the panel. Thank you all!!! -- Kent &

Hello All, I am hoping someone might have done a bit of thinking on this question, who has greater insight on AGM chemistry than I. My questions surrounds storage of AGMs and solar charging. I have

Thanks for the responses, I"m going to have to dig into this some more. The overhead light in the engine room hasn't worked since we bought the boat either. My guess is, the previous owner tried

On Kimberlite Super Maramu, I connect it to the bonding at the fuel fill in the locker starboard side of the mizzen mast. It works when the wire is behind the lip of the locker. Fair

Kent, I just did both, fore and aft heads on my boat. We did not take that panel off. We used a 90deg drill and a 1.5 inch Forster bit to ream out the copper we could not pull out. Then used a 2.5
