Think so Freddy & whilst you're there take some notes on how to read all reply's written in these sorts of threads

Think I gave a very good possibility as to why the water pressure dropped when boris said he put the motor into gear in one of my early reply's.

Think the prob most people make in these sorts of threads is they base their reply's on the original Q asked & dont stop to look @ any other possibilities.

Very hard for an impellor to just shat itself unless of course you have a fuel blockage

Now where's Fed to comment on that one ???

Jumpy, I agree with you why the water presure drops when placed in gear and I agree hard for a 12 month old impeller to shat itself.
My reply on the impeller was based on Boris' mechanic saying after he looked at it that it needs a new impeller.

Water getting hot - "but the water... its one second hot then it cools down the other second then it gets hot again and again..." Yes that is the thermostat but he did not state how hot is hot and he did not get an alarm/buzzer and I assumed the buzzer was working when he started the motor.

Any way I'll stop ASSUME-ing you know an ass out of you and me

Hey,

Boris we get half the info and now we will never know what caused the problem.o B

ok the impellar was faulty, so probably the prev owner dry started the motor. That was the cause of "water stops when you put it in gear"
But also thermostad was faulty causing water beeing too hot.

the alarm buzzer came of after leaving the motor on idle for 5 mins or so...

Ok, in his absence.....

You have a condensation problem in your fuel, just ask jumpy how to fix this. He has this problem all the time

Happy jumpy?

I think you made that up Freddy

The Mechanic didn't even get to look @ it till well after you made that initial comment that I quoted you on & if I recall Jumpus was the one who said it could be a faulty thermo.

No where in this thread does it say that & let me tell you how dumb some of these mechanics can be I'll bet my short & curly's that the reason thermo & impellor were changed by the mechanic was because boris brought it to their attention & yes if a mechanic has gone to the trouble of pulling out the old impellor then it would be silly not to replace it.

hows the boat coming boris

hows the boat coming boris

i'll post some photos soon....
i am not sure where to put LBT.
Underfloor or transom or under the passenger seat?
what do you think guys?

[boris]

hey,
I put the boat on the water yesterday.
The motor and the boat are above my expectations. I am really happy with them.
but i should consider a hydrolic steering... the steering was a bit heavy.

Well grasshopper

When you get to be like Jumpus you can make the water come to you

Just wait for the rain to come

Hydraulic steering is very good & you'll never look @ cable steer again

[It'l Do]

Hydraulic steering is great.

Just a suggestion set it up and start using it first, you may find other expensive things you want first but one day hydraulic steering will make it to the top of the list.

Hello guys,
Not too much done after that. Added a second seat, a large bait board, rod holders etc.
I've been using the boat a lot till 3 month ago.
Yes its been 3 month ago last time i used it and i have around 30 lt of fuel in the tanks. The question is how do I dispose this old fuel. Or is there a way to use it?
Thanks

[Jumpus GooDarus]

How big is the tank the fuel is in ????????????????

[boris]

I've got 2 x 25 lt (I think)
One of the has around 10 lt in it and the other one 20 lt

[Jumpus GooDarus]

To bad tanks aren't bigger else I would've said just leave old fuel in there & top it up with fresh fuel to top up the octane level.

Fuel is still good even after 6 months but loses it's octane level so it dosn't fire as well in the pistons.

Just pour old fuel into the car done that many a time

[boris]

Is octan boosters any good?

[boris]

i think I allready mixed it with oil

[Jumpus GooDarus]

i think I allready mixed it with oil

Ewe seafairys are WEIRD

So wot ?????????

A bit of oil wont hurt, may smoke up a bit thats all

Dont pour it all in @ wunce if worried do it in tu fills that way it will dilute alot better

Many moons ago ran out of fuel in the old landcruiser coming back from a trip out bush, drained the fuel out of the bikes on the traler [2stroke] & filled the car got us to the next town

[boris]

Mate,
I dont see myself using that fuel for my car, but not a bad idea for my missus' car
Is there any other way to dispose it, I dont pay for my fuel any way...
