Re: Saltwater Manifolds, Primary and Secondary Late Model SMs & All 54s
Nick,
Over time corrosion will have enough effect that you will want to replace the copper. You have about 8 more years before you need to worry about it.

Hi Steve,
Well done.
Does not look like a plain resistor to me, could be a varistor, NTC or PTC. But also could be a diode, is there a stripe on one side?

Update to Bow Thruster will not go down
I’ve managed to remove the defective circuit board from the bow thruster control box, and am attaching a couple more picture which will allow you to see the damaged resistor.

Dear Lior,
I received the Mota and I will go to the boat this week-end.
I will let you know for the oil pipe connection, if can use the same.
I just check on the Mota and it is 16 mm.

Good question. I apologize for the lack of clarity.

Re: Saltwater Manifolds, Primary and Secondary Late Model SMs & All 54s
Thanks Bill,
When you say "late model SM", do you have a hull number range in mind?
We are 437, so I guess we are "late model".

Re: Test plug on a 54 Volvo 110 D3
Thanks very much Mark,
I will try using information you sent though my EVC panel is different from the one shown on your message.
My engine is the D3 B. Maybe yours is a different version.
