Re: Replacement marine stereo radio/speakers
Not sure but they look like my Poly-Planer MRD-60 Waterproof speakers.
I bought them from J&H Products 734-320-0160

Re: High head pressure (HI/PS) error
Try disconnecting the hose from the sea strainer to the pump and connecting a hose to it and flush out the system under pressure.
I have had to do this twice in 13 years. Especially bad in areas of high algae growth.

Re: Prop replacement
Sorry it has taken me so long to furnish details of the EWOL Feathering prop that I purchased in December 2017. I have been battling health issues that prevented me from testing the prop. See 5 December and 6 December post. I have a 16” wheel set at 17* which equates to 9.2 inches. Took the boat out...

Re: sludge in fuel tank
I hired a dock side fuel polishing company to polish my contaminated fuel 8 years ago. Be clean ever since. Worth the money.

Re: Prop replacement

Re: Headliner discolration
I have found that Mr. Clean MajicErasers and lots of rubbing will take off the discoloration without the bad effects of acetone. Wipe well with a wet rag and follow with wet rag often.
I will report later as to the long term effectiveness.

The installation manual for the PD 500 Flux gate compass dictates the installation location should be: 1. On boat centerline 2. As far away from ferris material as possible 3. As close to the center of gravity as possible 4. Away from vibration. I would look in the forward berth under the bed port s...

Re: Transmission Position When Sailing?
I just talked (16 Sep. 2014) to Fred Hutchenson at PSI and he said that it does not matter if the transmission free wheels on our boats. It is only a problem if the boat planes and sucks the water out.

Re: M35B water temperature sender threads
I had what sounds like, a similar problem, that was solved by changing the coolant.
Coolant was old and lost its effectiveness. Be sure to use RED coolant.
Hope this helps

Re: ENGINE NOISE-DAMPER REPLACEMENT?
I purchaced the Sachs part but after talking to Leigh Weiss I called Fred Huchinson at PYI. He convinced me to replace the damper plate with a PYI high deflection plate, part # 22 AA4. It has a 30* deflection, thus better absorbtion, cost $215. Will install 12 November.
