    Universal 18 electric lift pump - E28+ - 1981

    Does anyone know the specs for the electric fuel lift pump option for the Universal 18? I would like to have a spare pump (the current looks original) on hand and am not sure if any "generic" pump would work or if there are specific pressure/flow requirements.

    Electric Lift Pump for 5432

    So I'm thinking I want to carry a spare electric fuel pump for my New England cruise but I can justify spending $160-$260 for a direct replacement Facet pump. Knock on wood the original pump seems to be holding up just fine but its one of those things that if it goes I will be engineless. Short...

    35-II tall rig - Topping Lift Measurment

    Can anyone out there save me the trouble of going to the boat for a measurement? I'm going to replace the topping lift and wondering what the measurement would be. I'll take an educated guess from anyone and build in a few feet for error. ;) How long (and how thick) a line would I need for...

    Spinnaker Topping Lift Opinions

    My spinnaker rig has this type of block attached to the mast with a strap eye: To avoid chafe, I've determined that the best way to "store" the block is to run a messenger line in place of the topping lift to avoid UV damage and prevent the block from banging around up there. Is this the...

    Can ayone tell me the point along the mast to lift it out of the boat? I would like to keep it a little bottom heavy so as to keep it upright once clearing the partner. My YC just installed a nice, new jib boom rig for stepping and unstepping masts. This will be a major money saver as I can...

    Fuel lift pump Vs Primary fuel filter height

    I recently had a problem getting all of the air out of the fuel system :boohoo: for the engine to run reliably after cleaning the fuel tank and replacing the filters. It would run for a while and then stall out after a power drop. When I got a mechanic to look at it, he turned the lift pump on...
