Not enough flow at idle for filters to affect idle speed. Plus on electronic engines the computer regulates the speed.
3412Es don’t have mechanical tachs at the helm, they have the Cat displays getting data straight out of the ECUs. ER tachs May not show a small...
Most one way rentals need to start at a major airport. Much cheaper than shipping
I think the initialization of the ECUs is important but I m not a big fan of letting engines warm at idle too long. It take a while to get to 140...
You need a different mechanic ... johnson used Morse controls with the 3412Es not cat controls They should have zero impact on idle RPM. I really...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] The installation manual recommends installing them amidship
We don’t. I talked to Trac a few years ago and they said the ones we have could be converted to zero speed but may not be as efficient as with the...
They could be further aft since it s shorter. Trac will be able to confirm the best location. The biggest issue is having enough height between...
whatever....
I don’t remember the exact layout of the 76. On the 80 and 84 the stabs are under the master floor, about a foot aft of the head
no it s not simplistic. The actuators have to come off and the holes have to be glassed. These gyro gales compressed air stabs are not a good...
Your alternator should have recharged the battery, what is the voltage charger off but engine at high idle? the windlass shouldn’t cause a drop...
Yeah, we all know multiple pairs are used on large boats... not the subject of this thread.
An 8D should be fine, truck or marine. have you checked the water level? personally I can’t imagine why anyone would even think of raising...
4 stabs was a Gyro Gale thing which I don’t believe any other stab manufacturer tried. Any new system will use two fins, you ll just need to glass...
Confused about this part of your post : “I jumped batteries together and then use parallel and it will start.” which batteries did you “jump”...
I ve had Advantage Marine Service in FTL work on the ABT trac stabs on the 84 lazzara I run. I also bought a rebuilt set from them for my own 53...
I know... that was my point. Another flaw of the current boating certification... almost zero mention of the risk and I can’t understand why the...
Are you saying paint only last 7 years?
All marine electrical devices are ignition proof. A marine charger or a bilge pump should not cause an electrical explosion. It s the second...
