I’ve already diagnosed the hydraulic pump motor as being the issue. Wondering if anyone has ordered a replacement before.

Jet Pumps / Replacement diverter pump motor

Does anyone know if there is an aftermarket motor that will work with my place diverter hydraulic pump so that I don’t have to replace the whole thing?

Jet Pumps / Hydraulic to manual diverter
« on: June 04, 2019, 12:06:51 PM »
Hello i just got ahold of a used hydraulic place diverter off of a parts boat. After hooking everything up i found out that the electric motor for the hydraulic pump is bad.
Can i simply buy a cable and handle then install it on the same diverter? I noticed that the upper hole that mounts the cylinder is oval shaped. Will this need to be drilled out to accommodate a cable?

Thanks

Engine Mechanical / Electrical / Canton pickup
« on: August 19, 2018, 04:56:41 PM »
So I am installing a new 460 canton oil pa n 18-760 with the 18-761 pickup. The support bracket for the pickup appears to mount on the center main cap bolt but the mounting hole is too small? Also the clearance to the bottom of the pan appears to measure about 3/4" which seems like too much.
Should i just drill out mounting hole or am I missing something? Would it be ok supported off the oil pump and no center support?

My current setup is the stock oil pump with the front sump pickup.
I want to go to a high volume pump and Canton makes this pickup designed for there marine pans.

Sounds like you may have had a different setup?

So I found the pickup from Canton for that pan.
How does this look for an oil pump?

Hey guys so I am doing a rebuild on my 460 and am going to be putting a new oil pan on it. The plan is to go with the Canton 18-760 marine pan. What are you guys using for oil pumps and pickups with this pan?

Thanks

Another question. Do I apply resin to the existing fiberglass and tank and then install the mat or do i do a dry layup?

I have the tanks out but you can still see where the overlay was. Is there an easy way to get this off or should I just grind it off?

Did you guys just glass them across the bottom or the sides too?
How should I go about removing the old fiberglass that attach to the tank?
Should I grind it out or can I put heat on it and peel it up?

So i'm planning to put bracket on the tank and mount it to plywood glasses in at both ends like bobs.
This is the first time for me working with fiberglass so any tips or best product recommendations let me know. Or if there is a good thread or tutorial out there please share.

Little bit worried to weld tabs on since the tank is so thin. But ill give it a shot.

My tanks don't have brackets or bolt holes or anything to mount them. I would had to strap it somehow or wrap it with fiberglass?

Gelcoat / Paint / Fireberglass Repair / Mounting fuel tanks
« on: April 26, 2018, 03:10:29 PM »
So I pulled my two fuel tanks after going through several inline filters and still getting crap. Tanks were held in by some kind of spray foam almost like "Great stuff" foam. I'm thinking someone did this as a quick fix? Or is there some kind of product designed for mounting fuel tanks this way? The tanks are rectangle galvanized steel and I can see where it looks like they used to be secured with fiberglass on the front and towards the back on the bottom.
What would be the best way to reinstall these? Should I fiberglass them in or build some kind of a mount / strap?

Thanks

Engine Mechanical / Electrical / 76 eliminator set up
« on: April 20, 2018, 07:31:11 PM »
Just got my first boat spending some time getting it set up. 1976 Eliminator  460 Berkeley Jet. Supposedly has a little head work and a mild cam. Couple questions.
Just installed a weiand stealth intake and supposedly has a 750 carb. Would I be better off with a 850? Should I use a spacer?
Also I want to install a water pressure gauge will fuel pressure gauge work for water? Has anybody drilled and tapped a gauge Outlet on there water Outlet housing? Or should it be installed elsewhere?
Thanks

Yes it was. Ok is it recommended to out in a bigger pan still?
I also noticed that on the side of the boat the striping was smooth but on the top you could feel the paint edges like someone tried to repaint it? Do they generally just have a clearcoat sprayed over the decals / striping?

Looked at a jet boat the other day. I noticed that the motor has a front sump oil pan, so I'm thinking the motor likely came out of a truck? Is it a concern if the boat was ran like this? How important is a marine oil pan?

Thanks
