Impeller Shaft Thanks Chris, Yep. Remembered to open the valve:). Just bought Calder's book. I've been reading some more trouble shooting post and am going to check it out today. Thanks for all your help. Phil S.

Impeller shaft issues still! Well here's the deal. I found the parts you left on the boat for the impeller. I've changed the impeller but did pull the shaft out at that time. It seamed to go back in just fine. After doing so and putting it back together I ran the motor for about 2 minutes...

Impeller Thanks all. We'll give it a go!

Pliers! Thanks. I'll work on a set of those pliers.

I have a 1987 E28 and I'm trying to change the impeller on the Universal M12 engine. I've taken the cover plate off and pulled the impeller but the shaft came out with it. There seems to be a retaining clip on the end of the shaft. Nothing I've seen or read talks about this. Does anyone know...

E 29 perhaps There is an E29 for sail in Dana point harbor. It's list on Yachtworld. It is tiller and a beautiful relatively new diesel. Just sayin. I just bought a E28 in Redondo Beach.

Its a solid boat, with many upgrades. I own it. Thanks Chris.

I've been searching for another boat to buy for a while now and have come across a 1987 E28. Does anyone have any thoughts as to the capability of this particular year and model? I know it's a very open ended Q. In particular, Is the keel encapsulated and is this a characteristic of all years...
