Mounted at bottom of engine room against hull outward from the transmission. A hose takes the air up and out the engine vent.

On my boat they are located outboard side of the transmissions. Inline of the hose, about 4 or 5 inch diameter.

Vitrifrigo dp2600ibd4 fridge was installed 2 years ago in our boat. I played hell getting it to fit. It died a few weeks back. No one locally can service the dang thing. I'm going to buy another one but this will be the last Vitrifrigo I buy if it dies again.

Mine is a year old. Replaced the Norcold which worked great for 17 years. Everyone told me Vitrifigro is the bomb and Norcold sucks now. Go figure.
Did it slowly degrade or did it suddenly fail?

It just failed. It was still trying to cool but doesn't do it very well. I wish I knew more about repairing them.

Hi, I have 1999 Volvo tamd73 410 hp. In our boat. I was running at 2100 rpm and lost about 500 rpm's in both motors. I pushed the throttles back up and the starboard motor went right back up but the port was struggling and blowing black smoke. I dropped both motors to idle and tried again I got the same results. Also tried restarting the port motor. No change. Limped home at 1000 rpm. Does anyone have any thoughts. Thanks, Greg

Yes, clogged fuel filter. Have you changed your Racors lately?

I’ve got a good friend with a hardtop in his 98 400 sedan bridge. I’ll see him next weekend when he relocates to our marina. I’ll take a bunch of detail pics if you like. I may even happen by his boat before then.
Cheers

I don't think the hardtop looks bad at all. Thanks for sharing.

That looks pretty nice! I've seen two attempts in the past that were awful.

speaking of refrigerators... I have the norcold version and my wife shattered the glass shelf (right above the drawer). Anyone know where I can get a new one?

It should be tempered glass. You can measure it to see what you need then order one from a local glass shop.

Problem of the week.
Does anyone know how to get the fuel sender gauge out of the tank? Or how to even get to it... 20002 with the Cummins diesels.

Which tank?
I replaced my starboard sender a few months ago. The sender access was under the starboard sofa on my boat.

Do you have the part number of the sender ?

Take a look under the sofa (side it down a few inches). I can see an access panel which I assume is the sender....I also see that I need to clean under the sofa, but that is a different conversation!
