Re: LED anchor light

Thanx for your reply 'yodagwb'. What brand of LED anchor light assembly did you replace it with? What year is your C-350, mine is a 2005 # 368?
Just want to ensure that the original anchor light assemblies are the same.
Thanx,
Jim

Re: LED anchor light

Thanx for your response Bill and Mark but I was asking for the brand of the fixture atop the mast, not the replacement bulb type. I already have the bulb information from your previous posts.
Thanx,
Jim

Re: LED anchor light

I have a 2005 C350 #368 and wish to replace my anchor light bulb with an LED bulb. Does anyone know the brand (Hella, Imtra, etc.) of the actual fixture and bulb that came with the boat from the factory?
Thanx,
Jim

Ken - Hull # 368 is 1 1/4 since I've mounted several Nav Pods with that dimension.

Re: Freezer Thermostat

Hello Bill, just seeing your post. I have the same analog thermostat as you do and purchased an exact replacement from Fisheries Supply. The part is
Item ID: DOM F1710 and was $149.48 (free shipping). Their number is 206-632-4462 and they are on PDT.
Hope you're successful.
Cheers, Jim

Re: Fridge front door seal

I have now had a chance to use my box mounted seal (as opposed to the factory door mounted seal) while cruising and it works like a dream. The door closes tighter with no cold air escaping around the seal and the seal itself hasn't twisted.

Re: Fridge front door seal

Well, the frig door seal worked well for a while with the spacers in the hinges, but eventually twisted the seal on that side. So, this winter I took the door off (have gotten good at that now) and removed the old seal from the door itself. I took new seal (in one piece from a roll) and placed it on...

Re: Does the 350 Have A Prop Shaft Taper?

PYI's Maxprop Easy is the best, in my humble opinion, feathering prop (don't need a folding) out there for the M35B w/ Hurth xmission. It's easy to install and the pitch can be adjusted in the water, although mine with a 15/9 from the factory works great. Merry Christmas from the lower mid- Chesapea...

Ken, yes I am but remarkably when I tried it yesterday the pump pulled the a/f from the Sea Flush system as it's supposed to do. Go figure!!

Oberdorfer N202M-837 will pump cooling water but not A/F

Weird subject I know but after changing the impeller, the pump will pump the cooling water but NOT the a/f which I am supplying through a Sea Flush kit into the Groco water strainer with all components tight. I hold the a/f container above the level of the strainer and even move the hose around some...

Re: Engine coolant drain locations

Terri - Found the fitting and opened it but not much coolant came out, guess I had gotten most of it out with the Heat Exchanger drain petcock. Next time I will open this fitting first and then the exchanger petcock. Emptied and cleaned the overflow tank and refilled. Used about 1 & 1/4 gallons ...

Engine coolant drain locations

I've read several good articles in the Form relative to changing engine (35-B) coolant but can't find one showing/locating the drain locations. There is a drain petcock on the bottom of the heat exchanger and obviously at the thermostat housing (which I would think would be to purge air from the sys...

I have bent (the piling didn't give) the left flange outward of the starboard roller tray so that it interferes with the positioning of my new Rocna 15 anchor on the port roller and tray. I have tried to "pound" that flange inward to its original position without success. Any ideas on bend...

And it has not twisted the gasket at ...
