Further explanation and OPINION, 180 IS BETTER THAN 160, but not by a great deal, 180 will burn less fuel, and even 190 even less, but 160 is low, 180 is best, but you need not worry, it will not harm your engine, so boat, enjoy yourself, and have a great Wed, In my opinion.

Hi, Larry, it is 4" X 2-1/8" Outside Diameter. I have a photo, but so far cannot seem to find a way to attach it here. If you want to contact me at jerryd14@verizon.net I will send a photo as I do not know if the F28 is the same, likely it is.

Thank you

I should also add, you must check your raw water strainers every month or so, if you have the clear glass/lexan ones, no big deal to view, and by all means, every time you use boat look at your exhaust discharge water flow to insure you are having a good continuous water flow. Then every 5-6 years o...

Chrysler 360 ENGINES WITH FRESHWATER/Anti freeze cooling with Heat exchanger using Raw sea water, run best at 180 degrees F. Your antifreeze water routes through engine block and returns thru heat exchanger to have the excess heat removed and then back the engine, regulated by the thermostat. The ra...

Hi, I have dropped my chrome Hawse pipe cover (covers anchor line hole) overboard and wanted to ask if anyone knew where a Trojan might be being scrapped where I could buy this.

Thank you

I must agree with the 180 Deg. as this is what the manufacturers suggest for best engine performance.

I wondered if you would all share what you average gas consumption
is at 2500 rpm, relative smooth seas, boat full of fuel 200 gallons,
clean bottom, two people onboard, twin chrysler 360 engines, total hp
is 500.

Thank you

Hi, Yeah I need basically the parts that operate the Fly Bridge section, that run horizonally across the deck from under upper Instrument station. It is basically 2 sections of chain, 2 steel rods, 2 sprockets, and 1 gearbox. All of this is again along the Flybridge deck, and begins where the steeri...

1977 Trojan FBS 32 and similar boats with Mechanical chain , sprocket, steering. I am interestered in buying some old chain, a sprocket or two and a steel rod from anyone who has a boat for spare parts, or who has removed the mechanical type steering from their boat. PS: Also I would appreciate know...

Yes For Sure, from the FB wheel there is a a shaft, the shaft runs vertically down into the cabin behind the lower station instrument console, where it terminates into a gear box. Coming out of the box is a small shaft, with a sprocket and chain, short horizonal chain that connects to a sprocket on ...

I seem to have quite a bit of play and tolerance in my steering wheel, the chain from the fly bridge is quite sloppy. Is there any problem with adjusting the turnbuckle to remove just the excess chain slop, and still not adjust it so as to place any strain on the bearings. Any thoughts from other Tr...

Thanks Paul,

I sent a request in to Bob also.

Does anyone know the correct part number for a compatible 0-80 psi dual station oil pressure sending unit that works properly with the original AC Spark Plug Co. 0-80 psi electric oil pressure gauges that were original equipment on this boat. I have twin Chrysler 360 ci engines, but that really make...
