If this is the Graco filter with the transparent cup, and if you winterize your engine with the antifreeze, make sure that you drain the AF from this filter before winter. The cup has a tendency to craze with AF left in it. Guess how I know Marek 1994 C270 Legato Ottawa, ON Sent from my An

Had my air conditioner intake plug a few times when in a slip in a stagnant corner of a marina where trash accumulated. Things stuck in the elbow on top of the thru hull. I have a tee with garden hose hookup and a valve on the discharge so I can blow it out. Contributory to the problem was it wa

Thanks Dave and Joel for your suggestions—easy to check with multimeter or without. I can’t remember how long it’s been since I replaced the pump/switch so I doubt it’s the wiring which has been securely zip-tied to my centerboard pennant ‘tube’ for the same unknown years. Charlie Sent from th

Interesting discussion. The only time I have had my raw water intake plugged was when I ran the engine in a grassy area while at anchor. In that case, the grass plugged up the through hull and never got to the strainer. The admiral dived down and cleared it by hand by pulling the weeds out.

Glen, Touche' no longer has an Atomic 4 but below is a link to the raw water strainer on Touche'. It's accessible from the starboard lazarette locker. The strainer is a Perko. Mine has a short glass, not the standard length. With a standard glass, it would be too tall. https://drive.google.com

Glen, I installed a Groco strainer, mounted it low on the forward bulkhead in the Lazarette under the starboard seat. Just screwed the mounting fixture to the bulkhead and ran hoses from the thru hull to the strainer and from the strainer to the raw water pump. //I used two 90-deg bronze elbo

Glen - I had a bronze and glass strainer basket - maybe groco - on my 33-2.  I sailed out of Whitby ON and the strainer did its job in shallow, weedy places like Frenchman’s bay and presquile bay.    Glad I had it.   Dave Sent from my iPhoneOn Apr 8, 2024, at 11:43 AM, Matthew Wolford via CnC-List

Stus-List Re: Bilge pump breaker issue

Use a multimeter to measure resistance, +12v to  ground, from the load (pump) side of the breaker, with the breaker open, and the float switch open.   It should show infinite resistance.  If it shows very low or no resistance, you have a short.  Disconnect the pump/switch.    If the problem persist

Stus-List Re: Bilge pump breaker issue

When you cut the wires for the pump, turn on the switch. If there is a short in the wires the breaker will trip. Otherwise it is the pump. On Sun, Apr 7, 2024 at 10:09 PM cenelson--- via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > My bilge pump breaker has recently started to disconnect immediat

Hello everyone, I was wondering whether anyone has installed a water intake filter system for the raw water intake on an atomic 4. Specifically, the water thru haul is pretty close to the water pump hook up and any filter that is not an inline filter would require some right angles on the plum
