Dude can you do a Q&A? (Preferably live). I want to know how and where did you learn how to fix stuff? It’s like you’re born with an engineering mind, you keep your cool, always patient and never get flustered. Unlike me who has tantrum when I run up against a problem, then try’s to resolve the problem with a hammer and when that doesn’t work sit sulk till one of my buddies shows up to give a hand.

In that type of cooling system, the sea water doesn't get into the engines directly, but it goes through the heat exchangers and those can be corroded by sea water even if the engines aren't. But even in that case, replacing the heat exchangers is way cheaper and easier than replacing the engines. You also don't want a failed heat exchanger in the middle of the ocean.

Im a marine mechanic, both those engines spin the same direction. The Mercruiser MPI engines were never reverse rotation. The counter rotation is performed in the transmission/drive not the engine like older engines used to do.

It seemed indeed a bit strange to assemble 2 differend rotation engines...

@phlodel 2 года назад

I'm not a marine mechanic but I used to rebuild starters for a remanufacturing company. People would bring in starters off of boats and the counter people would tell them that it's a special starter built specifically for boats. When I was given the first "marine" starter to rebuild, I asked my foreman what was different about a "marine" starter. "Not a damned thing but we can charge double because the boat owner thinks it's special."

@ChrisWright - What's your opinion on gas vs diesel engines for boats like this one? Can they be swapped without making expensive changes?

@WrightPerf 2 года назад

@@phlodel well a marine starter and a automotive starter are quite a bit different. Most marine starters are sealed and use corrosion resistant materials like stainless fasteners. There is reverse and standard rotation starters as well. But the reverse rotation starters are typically only for the older powerplant manufacturers and mostly fell out of use in the 80s. Because manufacturers like Mercruiser figured out that it was way more cost effective to have the drive/transmission control the counter rotation needed in a dual powerplant setup.

The caps might have been left off from a cooling system flush of the sea water side where the strainer is mated to an adaptor to feed in fresh or treated water. , treated if you are winterising or descaling . You probably know all that anyway 😆

@luigifabio77 2 года назад

The engines usually turn the same way. The transmissions take care of the counter rotating props. Be that as it may, if you're going to run the engines for any amount of time, you'll need water in the intake strainers to avoid burning up the salt water impellers. You MAY be able to get enough flow for idle RPM by sticking a hose in the filter housings after CLOSING the seacocks. You don't want to have to go fishing for impeller bits in the heat exchangers. That's no fun AT ALL.

@sethbarnes7608 2 года назад

Actually, there's only a couple of styles of marine transmissions that will do that. The Borg-Warner Twindisc, and the new ZF models. The vast majority of twin engine boats have 1 counter rotating engine

@luigifabio77 2 года назад

@@sethbarnes7608 every single Borg Warner Velvet Drive will do that as well. Almost all of the Hurth (now sold as ZF) transmissions will do exactly the same. I could keep going: there is an extremely small minority of transmissions that are not symmetrical. I do not know what section of the industry you're referring to but I strongly suspect it's local to you or that you have in mind a specific subset of boats.

Really appreciated the veteran shoutout at the beginning bro. I'm a "disabled" (very fortunate compared to others) vet at only 26 years old. Life hits fast, and its a weird dynamic going from picturing "disabled vets" as old dudes wearing Vietnam caps at early-bird breakfast, to being one myself at my age, and fellow soldiers I served with my age. There's more of us out there than you think.. you probably see one every day and would never know it. All the recognition we can get is awesome! Just found your vids and you gained a new sub. Great stuff! edit: this is in no way a shot at our old-timer, OG vets! Toughest generation in history, those guys.

You might think about running a product called barnacle buster into a sea strainer, into your heat exchanger. Clogged heat exchangers cause the most overheating issues on engines with heat exchangers. Vinegar works good I hear also, but have only used BB mentioned.

Nice job. Just a quick observation. The seams surface area under the crack of the broken starter looked very clean where it was broken apart, very little discolouration or corrosion. Just saying, but are you sure you didn't break it trying to start a seized engine. Or it looks like it was broken recently.

If you want to replace all the gauges it might be cheaper to switch over to a NMEA 2000 system. You can get a Fox marine Gateway that connects to your engine and connect a garmin display with digital gauges.

Thank you for your service. It burns my ass to see vets having a hard time or being homeless when our southern border is wide open and the criminals coming across are given everything free. They invaded our country and get rewarded. But those who risked life health and freedom are being spit on. Disposable heroes as far as creepy joe and his band of treasonist dictatorship tyrants are concerned. I am ashamed of the state of my country.

they are both standard rotation (ccw looking from the flywheel), and they're left hand starters because they're mounted on the opposite side of the fly wheel than standard

@thomaspaccione8237 2 года назад

Never use automotive parts, especially the starter and alternator, in a boat. Marine electrical parts are designed to be spark free. If you should have a gas leak a spark from the starter, or alternator can cause an explosion. Please use only Marine parts, yes more money, but it's much safer.

@literallyshaking8019 2 года назад

As mentioned, marine fuel doesn't have ethanol because of water being all around. So the ethanol-free fuel is a lot more stable.

@@Xcelor8 the best reason to not clean it before checking deal breaking repairs is not becoming invested in the idea of what it could be. If you don't have a lot of sweat equity in it it is a lot easier to walk away from it.

As a marine technician this was actually intriguing to watch the difference in the diagnosis process of a DIYer especially the fogging part as a tech we would never fog a fuel injected motor as it would cause more harm to the seal it's almost like you answered your own question when you said you did it to Old carbureted motor lol and the white smoke is mostly bad gas . cool video !

Ive been looking at 30-40 foot boats to do the great loop in.

@bbrut3332 2 года назад

Watch draft as the loop has some shallow water. Try to find a diesel powered boat. Unless money is no object the gas engines are looking at 10 to 12 gph per engine. Single or twin engine trawlers have the most room andbyou travel at 8 to 12 mph or 7 to 10 knots per hour. The older Ford Lehman 120 to 160 hp diesel will burn 3 to 6 gph per engine. Good luck on your search.
