Re: Trojan International 10.8 Meter EXPRESS
How is your hull holding up? I have the same boat and maybe just a few hull numbers after yours. I can't find anything wrong with mine except from stress cracks along the chine. I think that was from a bad sling lift.

Strange tachometer issue
Ok. So this is an issue that has stumped a couple of mechanics so far. My starboard 454 has a tach flutter only when the port 454 is reved up in neutral to about 1600 rpms or higher and when in gear at about 1200 or higher at all higher levels. The starboard tach will dive down about 100-300 randoml...

Stress cracks in fiberglass hull
Ok so I have a 1991 10.8 Express. I have had verticle stress cracks along the chine on the port side ever since I have owned it (over the last three years)... I haven't detected any new cracks yet. The rest of the hull is clean of cracks in that area. The cracks seem to be most prominent along the t...

Hot water heater
It is time for a new one for me. I want to go tankless. I have 4gpm pump now and two sinks and a shower. Any good whole boat water heaters out there. Not point of use. Must be electric too.

Yes, the tank had cracking around the outlet and such that I patched... I had to cut access holes into the tank though to clean it and and repair stuff. The molded tank is great, but I am wondering now that I have access holes if my pressure and plumbing system is not working properly so I just thou...

replacing a glass water tank
Hi all,
I have 10.8 meter trojan with a mid cabin glass water tank. I have spoke about it before on this forum. I think I want to get rid of it and replace it with a standard poly/plastic tank... Is this reasonable? I had to make an access panel on my current one to fix a leak before.

Oil change kit for 454 Cruisaders
Hi all,
Can anybody recommend a good pump kit for my crusaders? From where I can see the drain plugs, it looks like a permanent draing plug pump system would be a huge pain or impossible. I would need a dipstick tube kit.

454 crusader backfires qt 2200 rpm
I have 91 and my Port engine wont throttle past 2200 in gear without backfiring and dropping rpm. It gets to high rpms fine in neutral. I am changing caps and rotors tomorrow. Any other ideas?

Generator quits after a while
My kohler gen set will quit about an hour or so into running. It starts back up fine but shortly quits after. I have a good amount of water discharged out. I am thinking a faulty temp sensor. Could there be low oil too?

10.8
Hey that is interesting. I didn't know about just only 14 being made. My hull number is 360-1004. So is that 10 or 4. Pretty cool.
