When we pulled our E28 at the end of the season, the prop was badly calcified, the area around the shaft and prop had calcified deposits on the hull, and the lower section of the keel was pitted. The shaft anode also showed signs of excessive pitting compared to previous seasons. Our fuel...

Overheating Problem solved. Thanks for all your words of wisdom. I bypassed the water heater and the motor cooled down. I was suprised due to all the efforts that we had previously put into bleeding the air out of the system after we changed the thermostat and bleeder valve. It must have...

M12 Still Overheating Thanks for your input. Everything seems to be clear. I disconnnected the water heater, heat exchanger, reservoir, and all items flowed properly. I removed the thermostat and poured water through the engine and it flowed freely out the coolant pump. It overheated again...

I just bought an E28 that had been on the hard for 13mos. I did an engine test which went very well. It started right away and we ran it for 5 minutes before shutting it down. One week later I noticed that the entire transmission fluid cavity had leaked out. The plug was tight with the seal...
