Engine Mechanical / Electrical / A little cooling issue
« on: August 07, 2016, 09:29:39 AM »
Hey guys I'm a little concerned about the cooling temp on my BBC Berkeley jet 20 ft closed bow cruiser all stock 150 hrs on the engine. Was in Havasu a couple weeks ago engine was hitting 180* in the chanel but going up or down river running 150 deg 160 deg. Is this normal i have a gate valve it was a little closed but now fully opened, the boat responds when you get on it out of hole any advice.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

How many of you guys use the black Msd high vibration coil part#8222 or do you guys use the red blaster2 part # 8202 . The black one is said to be designed 4 marine and off-road use does it really make a difference just asking thanks for the help

Thank you for that information Gt. Bought sleeve from GS marine and having the bowl machined by a local machine shop. Going to pull the rest of the pump out this weekend and see how much more stuff has to replace.

Is this a bad way to go trying to be a little bit conservative or should I just spend the money and buy a new bowl I mean I could if I had to but if I could save it that would be fine by me just a cruiser not a race boat thank you for your advice Brian

Yes, they are pretty bad. I was able to remove one bearing with my finger. With the sleeve that I saw on line, would that eliminate the use of oil in the bowl?. I know I'll have to have it machined to fit, but just wondering if im going the right way about this for long term repair. Thanks for the advice.

Well i think the bowl is in bad shape, has anyone ever had luck with a sleeve for the bearing area. Cp performance sells one.

Sorry, but what do you mean by rigid or soft frame seal. If your talking about were the bowl goes into the plate, it looks like sealant. Does gluing the seal help from it coming off?. I understand the being careful what should i be looking for.

Can i get some advice, my bowl seal is not holding the gear oil in the bowl I have the parts to replace it, bearings new seal. Can this be done with out removing the jet out of the boat. It a split bowl I see the bolts that hold the bowl inside the boat could I just remove the bolts and take the bowl off. What should I be looking for when it's off and what kind of silicone should I use putting it back together oh all so have the gaskets for the bowl and nozzle. Thank you for the advice in advance.
