Post 1987 3207 sliding window glass
- Posted by: Marty B » August 14th, 2021, 6:23 am
- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
Can anyone tell me how to remove just the glass panels ( sliding pieces ) from my newly purchased 3207 fixer upper. I have studied and can not figure it out yet. I was hoping to just lift each panel up in a deeper top track and move the bottom out of the lower track to remove. Not so in this case and I suppose I can understand that these panels could make there way out in the same way on rough water......Who knows ???
Thanks

Post Onan MCCK impeller change
- Posted by: BarryK » August 13th, 2021, 9:47 pm
- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
Hi all,
I have a 1990 MCCK J series genset. I successfully removed the 4 screws from the impeller cover but the cover is frozen and I can't get it off. I sprayed it with penetrating oil and I will have another go at it tomorrow. I've had the boat for about 18 months now. I have no idea when it was changed last. I'm thinking about a rubber strap wrench.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Barry

Post Lifepo4 Batteries
- Posted by: Midnightsun » August 13th, 2021, 1:40 pm
- Forum: Electrical
Well I decided to take the leap to lifepo4 batteries. Probably going to need a bunch of advice so please jump in.
Lithium has come down to a some what reasonable price and the tech is now much more feasible in all respects.
Why Lifepo4? longevity is supposed to be 10 years plus. They can be drained to zero with no ill affects or voltage drop which means a 100ah battery actually has 100ah. They charge at full rate from zero to 100% basically on a bulk charge with no absorption phase which usually t ...

Just picked up a 1980 Carver 3326. What engines did Thea e come with? They look like a Ford engine? Got it for next to nothing but the starboard engine over heats at higher speed. At idle in the slip it is ok.

Post 444 Performance Questions
- Posted by: Bgaskill1 » August 12th, 2021, 6:53 am
- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
I’m having a pre-purchase marine and engine survey done on a 2006 444 CPMY next week. Does anyone have performance information on this vessel with the Volvo D-6 370 Diesel engines? I’m interested in:
(MPH, RPM & GPH)
Hull Speed:
Best Cruise:
WOT:
Also, anything specific I should look for during the survey (or general opinions of this boat) specific to this model and power plant?
Thanks in advance!

Post Hynautic 50 upper helm feels off - crunchy for lack of a better term
- Posted by: denders » August 11th, 2021, 8:15 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hi all - We have a Hynautic 50 helm on our 1985 3607. The upper helm was feeling off , the movement wasn't smooth more of a crunch every couple of degrees. The marina topped off the hydraulic fluid and made sure the air pressure was correct. This didn't fix the issue so we had them swap the lower helm pump with the upper. My question to the group is - would a rebuild help or if not what would be a replacement since they are not made anymore ?
Thanks in advance

Post Idle Air Control Valve

- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
Hi all,
After replacing the fuel pump on my starboard engine injectors had a much better pattern but engine would still stall as soon as put into gear. After mechanic inspection he identified the source of stalling as the Idle Air Control ValveI'm having trouble sourcing the shown part and the only number I can find is on the unit itself: 59559 (and directly under that number is: C0244&)
I did find a part @ AutoZone that looked the same at first glance, tried it and aft ...
