Stus-List Yanmar Solenoid for $175

2014-09-30 Thread Robert Boyer via CnC-List
Back in July, I replaced my starter and solenoid because my solenoid went bad and I could only buy the solenoid with a starter. The new starter and solenoid are not Yanmar manufactured. Recently, when going thru my spare engine parts, I found a new-in-box Yanmar solenoid (whoops). Since I

Well, I was insulting the Yanmar starter button without enough data it turned out that one of the starter solenoid wire spade clips was 99% off of the solenoid metal spade, only held on by the plastic sheath, maybe making metal to metal contact once in a while. Hard to see but easy to detect

Hi All, I recently re-did my battery and switch set up in Gabriela (just this last week as a matter of fact)… During the sea trials of purchasing the boat, I did something stupid (which I am prone to do), I didn’ t really study the electrics. I tested the lights, instruments, started the

Hi, I replaced my rudder bushing with one I made from material ordered from McMaster-Carr. I cut the bushing out of the material using a sabre saw and then cleaned up the edges with a Dremel sanding drum. As I understand, only the planar surfaces are important. The material cost was $20

And I don't want to sound cynical, but WalMart doesn't manufacture anything. With the purchasing power that they have, they can dictate terms to any supplier. And they do. The battery that you get from WalMart or Sam's Club this year can be entirely different from the battery you'll get
