Re: Repowering with 4.3L V6?

The OP did not do the repower. My thoughts I don't see why it would not work. Being fuel-injected you should see a slight gain in fuel economy. They may have to work harder to get on plane as maybe less tourqe. The main issue I see would be some vibration. The 4.3 is not as smooth as a V8 even the o...

Re: 89 mid cabin paralleling solenoid

Yes it's possible. If stayed engaged it would draw more than the altnator could put out. Was it burned up?

Re: 89 mid cabin paralleling solenoid

How do you have the DC to DC charger hooked up? Has a battery switch been hooked up to the batteries and is it on all? Recheck all your wiring.

Re: Aquatemp Air conditioner help needed

I would just contact any good marine AC guy. The basics should be the same regardless of brand. I don't think Aquatemp is still around. I also don't believe it was installed by Trojan as they used Cruisair and Lunaire. Check with your marina to see who they recommend.

The 2 powerboats I know of that have installed inverters do not have them wired into the entire boat. Wired mainly for the refrigerator. Sailboats are another story. I had one and I removed it and rely on shore power or the generator.
