Hi Barry, Did you have to change anything in the batterycompartment, cable, fittings etc for these batteries? Thank you very much Wolfgang SY Elise Dr. med. Wolfgang Weber Lenaustr. 2 45657

Hanspeter, I always have a difficult time understanding your posts. I think you are questioning that it takes me about 15 minutes to remove the heat exchanger on my Volvo TMD 22a . If that was your

Hi Pat this is funny 😀 you remove a Heat Exchanger on a Perkins T 80 or a new Yanmar 110 hp in 15 min. well done spedy concales. I like some texte like that. I don' think you are serious. best

John. If you want good inexpensive hoses ask frank vadi. He has a source there in Martinique. Excuse the errors. Sent from my IPhone Www.fouribis.com

Hey Craig, I actually could use both parts, as I see several impending failures. If you can have some made, please count me in on that. Thanks, Steve

Steve and John, Do you only need thechrome looking handle part (which is plastic), as I do, or do you also need thebrown plastic latching part? I'm looking into having some made, but only need

I need some as well, as I suspect every older SM and Santorin owner does. I’ve been looking for a couple of years with no success. Steve Davis Aloha SM 72 Hawaii

Thanks Bill, I am putting my watermaker back together finally, after an 13 month delay....darned hurricanes. I assembled the membranes and dry fitted everything to do a first run test. I didn't

Fellow forum members, I won’t bore you with the whole story, but I have to try new capacitors in my DUO 160 watermaker motor. The last person that worked on it, disconnected the old ones so I am

I'll definitely second what Pat has said here. Removing the thermostat should only ever VERY short term fix to limp home because the thermostat is stuck closed. Running a diesel without a

Thanks for the help to everyone who responded. Duane

Olivier, Removing the thermostat would not change the flow direction of the water and generally just would not be a good idea. The engine would not heat up as quickly,and may not ever rise to the

I recall several old posts about "bulging" fiberglass in the area of the struts (and elsewhere) being the embedded carbon steel backing plates having expanded with rust and forcing the fiberglass to

Thanks a lot. That does make it clearer. I will pull out the heat exchanger at the end of the season. I had also heard of people removing the thermostat to force all the cooling water to the heat

First, you did not post your name , boat or the engine you have , however if you have a Volvo Tmd22 as I do, then this would apply. If you are overheating it would be a good idea to take out your heat

Hello Patrick, My engine tends to overheat when I go beyond 2000RPM. Could you point me to the part (sleave) that you are taking about? Thanks

I think that the challenge has been identified. There are so many variables in these common gas struts, that to find one sitting on a shelf would be a miracle. There are some websites that will take
