It Runs!

The engine still runs - we fixed it today :)  Loose wire ends were causing the problem.













It was a messy operation and we had to displace Marco from his cabin to do school in the salon.





We found a small problem on the generator - a cracked coolant hose that needs addressing











But the bottom line is - THE ENGINE STARTS . . . now we can really leave

  1. Welcome To The Charter Biz,,Lol;),Hey Brock & Family, A common problem that you'll run into on all wire/ terminal ends frequently, If you see the wire turning black, It's only a matter of time before it quits, Keep them sprayed with plenty of CRC Etc., Keep a assortment of ends & crimp tools on board, And a few spools of #8& #10 wire for emergency. A Ohm/ Multi meter & A good test light with a long lead/alligator clip,Let me know if you need anything else,That problem is more frequent on the ground side of circuts. Later Paul
