Post Shore water source
- Posted by: Lou Skyking » July 29th, 2017, 8:12 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
I have a 2000 396MY....my pressure water pump and onboard tanks work very well and I like using the pump verses the shore water source..(fresh water in tanks all the time) .but I like for everything on my boat to work as it should..with that being said ...the shore water source will not work ...I have changed the pressure regulator still to no avail..how do you access the water line behind the pressure regulator? Also is there a shutoff valve that I may be missing?

Post Early Motorola two wire alternator
- Posted by: waybomb » July 29th, 2017, 6:59 pm
- Forum: Electrical
Anybody have any idea what the ignition wire is for on an alternator found on a 1987 mariner with crusader engines.
Only getting 13 volts output to batteries.
This is a Motorola 50 amp.
It appears to have a mounted external regulator on the back.
I'd like to see if I can fix it.
How do I test the alternators output, unregulated?

Post 1995 Trojan 350 Cruiser

- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
My husband and I are looking into a new boat. Having grown up on a 1979 32' Trojan F32 Flybridge, I'm partial to Trojans.
I think they hold up well and the first and last things to go on that boat were the engines, which could have been replaced/rebuilt. They were volvo penta's I believe, but this was some time ago.
We are between 2 boats seriously, maybe a third. I wanted to hear from some people who have or have had a 95' Trojan 350 Cruiser.
This one is:

Post WHAT DID I DO????

Just got HOLODECK back from the shop after hitting a rock and damaging a prop. Anyway, I am tired, been going for 36 hours now. Anyway, I placed her in the slip, hooked up the electric cords and before hooking up the water hose, I decided to top off the water tank. Walked over, took the cap off, stuffed the hose inside and turned on the water. Walked away for 3 minutes and started to smell GASOLINE! OH YES! I stuck the hose inside the port gas tank!!!!!! The tank was full, so who knows how much ...

Post Noise above 2600 rpm
- Posted by: crquisto » July 27th, 2017, 2:47 pm
- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
I have a rubbing or weird grinding noise from my port side when in gear with rpm above 2600. It sounds almost like wood on metal. I hit a log pretty hard a couple of weeks ago and subsequently discovered a water leak around the hose over my shaft log. When I got that fixed, I took off with the engine compartment opened up and my son watching for anything leaking or vibrating. None was noted, but we heard the new noise as soon as I advanced rpm above 2600 while under way. It does not make th ...

Post Port engine problems

- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
Greetings all.
I have a 1998 380 Santego with twin 454's. I bought this boat from an estate after it had been in storage for five years. We ended up replacing all the pump impellers, fuel pumps and did carb kits. The Starboard engine runs great but the Port engine after a short time will shut down At first it waited till I got up to about 3,000 RPM but now will shut down anywhere from 1,000 to 3,000 and will not re-start even at 500 rpm. We changed out some of the electronic ignition stuff ...

- Forum: Boat Parts For Sale
Hello all. Every few years I clean out my garage and purge what I haven't used in a few years. I found a few things that may be of interest.
Sony rm-x60m stereo remote. Brand new in box with cable, mounting hardware instructions etc.
Raymarine E66014 Bronze thru hull transducer. Brand new in box with instructions etc. Don't ask me what it fits, I don't remember.
Raymarine / Apelco Bronze thru hull transducer with speed and temp. p/n 31-085-1. I believe it equates to an airmar b50. Brand new in box.
