Sorry to jump on this thread, but I had to come over here to get my oil discussion “fix” for the year.
Apparently my new comrades on the 510 thread don’t change their oil or have someone else do it for them (that was a joke btw). And I’m a recovering 3126 addict. Boy do I miss the fuel economy...
I just bought the same cart full of oil yesterday at Tractor Supply. When I saw the picture I did a double take because I thought it was a picture of my cart :D! I used to do the 1 gallon jugs but this will be a lot more fun! My generator, motors (Cat 3196’s) and transmissions are all on the...
I was thinking about moving my controls out of the cabinet and to the location where yours is, hate having to reach into that cabinet to control the AC unit. Was yours originally mounted inside the cabinet….and why now 2 units?
In this picture, you have 2 cockpit air-condition controls outside of the small cabinet door to the right. Mine is inside the cabinet....and I only have one. is this an aftermarket modification?
Getting ready to do my yearly oil/filter change. CAT filters of course....but anyone have thoughts on oil?

Do you have any finished pictures of the light mounted inside the ACR spotlight...
If you know how to PM me, do that along with your phone number. Little bit more complicated than I think I can accomplish in this text, and also your email so I can text you pictures of certain procedures.
You’ve come to the right place! I just removed my hard tops couple months ago in Chicago, had it trucked across country to the bay area in California, and reinstalled everything. I can walk you through it step-by-step, with pictures.
Thank you for the advice. I purchased the boat this fall in Kenosha WI and got it to my marina in the Delta here in CA about a month and a half ago. Im going through the boat and getting everything dialed in...havent had a chance to drive her much but the smoke doesn't seem right to me. I will...
Old thread, I know.
But I now have a 2002 510 DA with the 3196's. Is 2300 rpms WOT? for some reason I thought it was 2400 and I am not able to get close to that...my WOT this weekend was approx 2250 and top speed was 33 MPH (6 adults, Full fuel 600 gal, full water 150 gal, 75 gal in holding...
