I had a ss one made. Lasted a good 7 years, and just starting to fail now. I gave them the flange to work off and they did the rest for about $120. Well worth it.

Further woes - removing an engine via companionway and boom
SanFran replied to aardvarkash10's topic in TechTalk
My thoughts are with you. Month or so back I lost oil pressure dramatically and ended up siphoning around 4 litres of oil out of the Engine tray.... after I had added more. Luckily found that the external oil supply line to the cylinder head had cracked, so was an easy fix in the end, but had envisioned pulling the motor out. Good luck to you -
Good to know. Thanks all

Cheers for that. New knowledge.

Have to remove it to replace an oil feed line to upper cylinder. I'm thinking Just a couple of bolts, unless anyone can wise me up. Older buhk 20.

Thanks for the reply. So it's nothing to do with making it last longer, or make it operate better then...

Seen discussion on this thread before, but i have a question. I will have to replace the exhaust port, out of the rear if the manifold, header??? The bit where the raw water joins the exhaust pipe. We replaced it with stainless steel one about 8 years ago, so not too unhappy with its age. I do note from pics that some wrap this with something, obviously not flammable. And possibly wire around that. What and Why?

BBYC is members only. And not year round. Hard stand has to be cleared through summer. Great price though.

Don't be disparaged. I persevered and, fingers crossed have been pumped up for last 6 weeks. Ready to throw it all away after the first several attempts. I hope I'm not tempting fate
