  1. Hi all I have a zf 10m gearbox and checked oil level today but the dip stick doesn't have a max or min mark on it but it does have a circular groove on it about 10mm from bottom of stick and the oil level is about 15mm above this mark .Does that sound right ?I know the recommended amount of atf fluid should be .35litres
  2. Ok Matty thanks for that just needed a bit of reassurance before I went and cut cable thanks for that
  3. Evening all.I just want to know can the cable feeding the easy start timer for the eberspacher be joined ? It's way to short I'd say for most installations.You can buy a 3metre extension but am on a budget here and it's way over priced I did leave in a cable for it to be joined .Has anyone else come across this problem?
  4. Ye I guessed that but it's freshly painted and has a bond so should be ok for the sikaflex
  5. Ok thanks guys I have a tube of sikaflex on boat and will try that ?
  6. Good evening all I need to stick a few plastic clips to the roof of the boat to hold about a metre of plastic conduit and was wondering what recommendations ye have for sticking clips to roof .Is gorilla glue any good?
  7. Thanks for all replies swapped wires around at guage and the same outcome guess I'll have to buy a different guage but I was sure the one I had was European type .thanks again will let us know the outcome when I fit new gauge
  8. Ok thanks guys will try that out tomorrow and let you know
  9. Which would require fitting to bottom of tank ,doesn't sound right to me
  10. First thing I tried same out come unfortunately
  11. Evening folks I have this week fitted a new fuel sender in my diesel tank and when I powered it up it is reading backwards .The tank is empty and it's reading full so I took out sender and moved the float manually to full and it reads empty .it's a simple 2 wire sender and yes the sender is matched to guage 0-190 ohms. Any ideas on correcting this much appreciated .this is the sender

    Prop change

    You can wind up the whole unit on some of the models there is a spring loaded locking pin that must be open before you can do so .have a look and see if there is a cog wheel inside the boat where unit exits transom

    Hi is the leg a swivel type? if so no problem
  14. Grand have just fitted it about 1/2 metre away from boiler on return line thanks BEngo
  15. Good morning all.I am currently fitting eberspacher in engine bay and have a question on water pump.I know it is not self priming and must have a constant supply of coolant but can the pump be fitted on either flow or return pipes ?
  16. Thanks phoenix Alan has sent me the manual ?
  17. Thanks for your reply guys it is a simple system with one steering position pushing one rudder with a distance of about 4 metres
  18. Evening alll hope ye are all keeping safe .I will be fitting hydraulic steering on my boat shortly and was wondering is it necessary to fit a small oil header tank .It's a vetus hydraulic steering pump and it does have 3 connections on it .
  19. Thanks flyboy ,with the the system running ?
  20. Evening all I'm currently plumbing the exact system as Greenhorn is and was wondering what's the easiest way for filling the system through the header tank .?
  21. I have a twin coil calorifier but I'm not connecting the engine circuit to it yet at the moment I'm dealing with the eberspacher central heating .engine connections will be at a later date
  22. I'll be using two pipe system.So I should be ok going to towel rail first and putting a valve on it so I can restrict the flow to it and then on to the calorifier
  23. Thanks for reply I'm using an eberspacher and rail, calorifier and heater are all within 2metres of each other for convience for pipe work it is easier to tap into rail first
