Re: Stus-List Deck Coring Around Chainplates

Thanks Dennis (and Gary and Sam). Let me see where I stand on Tuesday - I may be ready to epoxy if I can do the bent nail and acetone thing tomorrow. Let's call or text on Tuesday. Gary - my chainplate covers are aluminum and still in good shape, just needed a really good cleaning (probably

Re: Stus-List used vs new autopilot

Okay Danny, I’ll bite… :^) In pretty much all cases, the EV100 pilot will out-perform the ST4000. There’s very little difference in the drive, although the newer drive has a bit more power; but the ACU100 course computer and EV1 heading sensor are far more capable and sophisticated than the

Re: Stus-List Deck Coring Around Chainplates

I think the void filling approach is right.If your chainplates are the same as mine, they are actually mounted proper to bulkhead(s) inside the boat. The deck you are looking at is not supporting any part of the

Re: Stus-List Deck Coring Around Chainplates

Randy, You're on the right track. Wish I'd known you were doing that, I would have stopped by and taken a peek. I'm back up in the mountains now. If it was me, I'd remove the wet core as far back as I could with bent nail, etc., dry it with acetone and/or heat gun, tape the area, inject some

I used the void filling technique. Also built new covers as mine were plastic and cracked. Gary #593 From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of RANDY via CnC-List Sent: Sunday, January 29, 2017 5:48 PM To: cnc-list Cc: RANDY

Stus-List Deck Coring Around Chainplates

Listers- We're having a spate of nice weather here in Denver - supposed to be sunny all week and 61 degrees tomorrow (yes, in late January / early February). So today I pulled the chainplates on my 1972 C 30 MK I as part of a planned rebedding job (I confirmed leaks down the chainplates last

Re: Stus-List Engine Stop Cable - C 37+

Josh,My oil filter is 4 feet from the original position. After changing oil I don't want the engine to start until the oil is back to  the engine. With tje compression released, fuel & water off there is no real load on the starter, so the engine spins faster and less wesr on engine

Re: Stus-List Engine Stop Cable - C 37+

I have been using a compression release cable for years on my 3QM30 have not had any water in exhaust, any other issues. I do close my water intake before spinning the engine for anything other than starting. During starting I pull the cable spin the engine for about 5-7 seconds add fuel and

Re: Stus-List AP - Old vs New

I have been fixing my ancient AH 4000 ( not the ST4000, the real old one with the black box and red buttons) for decades now. I never was interested in the ST4000 because it seems to have more issues and problems than the ancient one did. If I do replace it, I am going for the newest unit. From

Re: Stus-List Broken elbow at water tank manifold, newbie diesel engine questions

Josh, you are spot-on that it is the connector between the elbow and manifold that is broken.  When I zoom in on my hi-def photo, I can even see where it looks like someone tried glue when it had cracked in some prior life.  We can't get to the boat until after closing, but I'm hoping I can get

Re: Stus-List Engine Stop Cable - C 37+

Josh, I like the idea of the solenoid. As far as using the re-purposed cable for pre-lube, I’d be concerned about pumping raw water in to the exhaust manifold. There would not be any exhaust manifold pressure while pumping raw water. Maybe I’m paranoid? Ron From: CnC-List
