    Replacement gauges for a 2003 Crownline 230BR

    You can spend as little or as much as you want. But as with everything, you get what you pay for Gauges sizes for the most part have been standardized. The voltmeter gauge from xyz mfg. is going to be the same size as the OE gauge. Pick a price point and a design and go from there

    Recommended DVA meter or DVA adapter for a Fluke digital meter

    A number of Fluke units have a “fast” min/max peak function. Others have min/max peak recording functions. Certainly cheaper to go with a analog meter and an adapter, but Fluke does offer the functionality on several of its models...

    2003 90HP 4stroke TPS issue

    A TPS is a simple rheostat. If the output voltage isn’t correct, the input voltage is incorrect or the rheostat is damaged.

    Possible water intrusion or lean sneeze?

    As someone that struggled with a leaking head gasket for a season, I agree

    Please be safe and don't forget to use your venting blower when fueling.

    Too slow… A diesel Shamrock made it to the short list when I bought my last boat. Too slow and too much draft for my liking

    What fuel to run?

    Two of my three vehicles give HP and Torque as a function of octane. Both are GDI, high compression, turbo charged engines that support 87, 88 (flex) and 93 octane. The manual goes on to state the fuel itself doesn’t cause the increase. The increase is due to the use of more aggressive tunes...

    G3 Bay 17 transducer placement

    I suspect it’s a transducer mount so you don’t have to drill the hull. Mount lays flat instead of you typical 90 degree when mounted on the transom

    Gauges I might need

    Digital motor…would need a A/D convertor to support existing analog gauges. Depending on your budget, could replace everything it’s a Yammi digital “information station” display Could use a standard yammi “command link”if you don’t mind scrolling thru menus to see everything

    changing transducers and fishfinders.

    A little different than my situation. I'm chasing migratory fish (Stripers and Tuna) traveling as individuals or in small groups Trolling #65 and #80 braid with lead heads (parachutes) and or in-lines for depth control. Typically fish no deeper than 25'. Most caught in the top 5'-10' water...

    Bluefin Tuna fishing out front is “off the hook” at the moment

    trim tabs

    I had to think about it for a minute........but you are correct. I have to use the starboard trim control to level the boat out on the run.

    Lopi Travis Industries Radiant Plus Gas Logs no Thermostat Control

    Same here. Have a like/hate relationship with it. We have three fireplaces in the house. One in the Family room, one in the Keeping room and one in the Master bedroom. The In-laws converted the one in the Family room prior to us buying the place. I like it because of the ease of adding some...

    Lopi Travis Industries Radiant Plus Gas Logs no Thermostat Control

    Ours was flaky. It would work fine one day then randomly shut off the next. I thought it as the thermostat, but turns out it only controls the blower on my system. In the end, it turned out to be the thermocoupler. The primary feedback of flame temp/ status to the control valve.

    Lopi Travis Industries Radiant Plus Gas Logs no Thermostat Control

    Know more about this subject than I care too. Fireplace was inoperable when we bought the house Check that the temp control circuit is functional. The remote is connected to a separate set of contacts on the gas control valve. If you’re getting the signal out to the controller, then the gas...

    trim tabs

    Is this a new problem to an existing boat or is the boat new to you? Coriolis effect of the a clockwise rotating prop makes a boat lean to starboard Sounds about right if they're helm controlled tabs. I'm guessing I have 1.5 - 1.75" of travel between full open and closed
