Any luck?

I missed this post sorry. Bob has the diagrams and also owners manuals. You will need your boats ID info

Top photo is just the breaker panel Next is your switches sounds like one maybe bad Next maybe the shower drain pump ( could be the fresh water pump? but likely the shower pump, I would have to be there to be 100% sure Next is the filter Lastly is the vacumun pump for the vacufluch head. Controlled ...

As said above switches should turn off the pump. Unless someone changed to system to an automatic slump type. Try and port the photos and that will tell. The filter could plugged up or the pump could be bad.

The 318 marine and automotive thermostats are not the same Most of the marine ones close off the bypass when they open Do you have a photo of your housing?

Good to hear, good luck.

You did not say what was leaking, but I can not think of any coolant leak that would require you to pull the boat out of the water. Can you give more details? And what boat?

Also look really closely at the engine for vacuum leaks. I have seen howling and whistling noises from carburetor base gaskets. And yes taking it in and out of gear will change the noise due to load and rpm change

Good question. And I really don't have a good answer. I have to wonder about it coming from the transmission or even the engine? If still making the noise, will it do it in reverse? When increasing rpm? When you put it in neutral, it mostly went away. What about after you shut it off?

Located in the lower helm . (assuming you have the lower helm)

Give Bob a call at BEACON MARINE @ 609-713-4602. He knows these Generators well and has the parts too.

Interesting, I have seen the "in and out of gear" but it was due to low fluid level. I would assume it would not go away at high rpm but did not try. Have you checked the transmission temperature with a temperature gun? If its a lot higher, check the temperature of the fluid hoses going in...

Slip below 1200? Does it suddenly engage when you are above? I would get a photo tach and compare the engine speed with the prop shaft speed. Make sure you us it on both the engine and the shaft, don't trust the dash tach.

I'm just wondering if it's something on the prop?

Are you looking for a new AC? Have you had your old system checked?

Would you have room for this? https://www.deepblueyachtsupply.com/5-i ... nge-puller
