Alright this little guy comes right after my fuel selector knob for my generator. It is some type of marine fuel valve that states Fuel/TROL on it and has a normal and by- pass valve set screw. Its 12 volts and pushes 10 psi before it gets to the electric fuel pump on the genset. I'm guessing...

I'm sure some of you saw my westerbeke rant in the general discussion. I'v managed to source everything, but the damn spark plug wires. Anyone have any ideas, its a 8.0 60hz. Iv tried searching for a vehicle with the same cc engine made by Mitsubishi and then searching for correct wires, but...

How are these folks still in business? 117 dollars for 4 spark plug wires? I can buy a crimping tool, boots, connectors, and an entire spool of wire for this price. I wont even go into some of the other parts and associated prices that go with Westerbeke. I remember them being expensive, but...

Anyone out there that still makes these? I have a 87 410 Aftcabin thats in need of the top bridge enclosure and bimni top. Have a quote for a custom job, but seems a little to pricy.

Looking at replacing the majority of my lighting with LED's. You guys have some sources that match up for typical boat installations?

Don't mind the condition or the color. Would pay more for forest green in usable condition though. kdumph@yahoo.com, I don't check this site often enough!

Used to work just fine and my mid and forward ac/heat systems work just fine. I have very limited electrical knowledge, but enough to know how not to shock myself and use a voltmeter. Where should I start to diagnose this issue? I'm thinking of pulling the panel off and looking behind just to...

Mines pretty raggedy and I'm not spending 500 dollars on a new one. I'm thinking or using the vinyl/plastic rattle can paint that I used to redo my bumpers.

Anyone know a good source or even better a knock off brand? I can't believe the cost of the parts I am finding for my genset. A basic tune up for this is well over 300. Also what does "BEG" mean? Mine is a 8kh 60hz but I can't find what they mean by the two different abbreviations before the...

Having issues with my port engine not running. I put new batteries in and started both the engines up. Both ran fine and were able to warm up and bring down to idle. Then the port engine died. Didn't sputter just kinda died. Upon trying to restart it, it starts up for a very brief second then...

Still fighting with my fwd cabin. I need to trim in the bottom ring part of the hatch. Along with 6 feet worth of seam where two pieces of foam fabric meet. Due to the curves the wood trim is just not working out. I'v done some goggle searches, but none of the sights are real specific on how...

Well I'v come to a new and more basic part of my boat that I'm not real sure how everything lines up. My batteries need to be replaced, but I want to figure out a couple of things first before I buy new ones. I'll give you an overview first. I have four batteries in the actual batterie...

This is where I'm at. Been quoted about 1700 to replace my aft enclosure on my boat using previous canvas and new Strataglass. I feel I can do this cheaper by buying the sheets myself and taking it all to an upholesty shop. I'll need 4-5 sheets for about 700-750 total. I'll just have them sew...

My 87's paint and gel coat has seen better days. Even with countless hours of work with buff magic and all kinds of other products she just doesn't shine. So here comes the new question.... The boat is mostly white with a painted green stripe around the bridge. Would just re-doing the gelcoat...

Trying to get a rough idea of what kind of fuel consumption I get on my gas 41 aft cabin. It has 454 mercruisers in it. I don't take her to wot often, and usually keep it around 1000rps to put around with.

Officialmanworld.com, haha created it on a whim and never done it before. Cost me about 60 bucks and I'm having fun with it. So far its in rough draft stage. Let me know what you think!

So I'm trying to figure out if the Wolo 400C http://www.amazon.com/Wolo-400C-WOLO-Replacement-Compressor/dp/B00029XHQ8/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top for 10 bucks would do just as well as this AFI Marine one for 100. I know you get what you pay for, but am I missing something here? The Wolo even...

The lime green countertops are really starting to get to me. I would much rather do laminate, but upon further research this wouldn't work for me in the kitchen and bathroom areas. The sinks and no drip edges are all pre formed into the countertop. They make post formed laminate for the edges...

I'm still a bit confused on how to hook this stuff up. Can I just cut the wires at the shrink wrap before they get to the driver and hook them up to one of the 12 volt busses under the dash? That way its powersource, driver, EL wire.... I have no idea what the multi pin connectors at the end are...

Going to be taking my bumper off a piece at a time and repainting it. I'm curious what its made out of. I thought it was rubber, but upon inspection it feels more like a metal.... Whats the best way to paint this? Also best way to shine the stainless steel insert? Going to be painting my...
