Trojan Boat Forum

Merry Christmas to all my Trojan Friends. It is just too cold on Lake Texoma to be boating.

I have dripless shaft seal on my f-28 and they work perfectly. FYI you do have to run a water source to them from engine water as once to a certain (don,t remember) water from outside the boat will not be lubricating the seal. They work much like any seal for a turning shaft on pumps do. On the F28 ...

I just put two new Pertronics distributors, easy peasy to install and work perfectly, oh yes they are the same distributors, turn same way, just firing order is different. Put em in, moved wires, started right up then set base timing. Perrrrfect.

Pertronix clariied any questions I had. It was simple as there are only 2 wires going into distributor. Ignition wire to red wire on distributor black ire to plus side of coil and . Oh crap I do not remember but somewhere is a diagram and protronix will help. They ere excellent there.

I bought the last bow pulpit rail kit Beacon had and have had it or several years. All parts struts and connection to existing rail are present. I wound up not using. I checked and it fits all the F boats including F-28 through F-36. I do not need.

mine disintegrated in the F28, changing now and changing the F36 next.

I purchased my Billet Pertronix distributors through Summit racing and double checked with pertronix.com support to be sure correct. They were for my Crusaders 270 (same one for the big block) They offer them for 318 Chryslers also. There is a difference chev vs chry and that is that the cam gear is...

This may get a bit windy. My 84 Tri-Cabin has 270 Crusaders and for 2 years or more have had difficulty getting them to run correctly. I had both carbies rebuilt by expert Cliff Ruggles and idle was perfect but port engine would backfire over 2200 RPM. Double checking timing and wiring all was perfe...

My son and I did ours to get the frig in. I am sorry I do not remember what sealer I used was from West Marine I think butyl sulfide. Put the bead down then set the roof put in the screws. After putting headliner in place we masked the groove in top off and filled with the same sealer and smooth. Ne...

Rest assured Aaron's memory is alive and well with this group and you can count on this group to help in any it can.

Anyone had the inverted flare fitting on the steel fuel line from fuel pump to carby leak. It is double flared. I am thinking the fix will be with 3/8 copper using the steel ending fittings and of course use double flares. thoughts, I like the steel line but has some rust and think copper will seal ...

careful I had some stuck ones in Chryslers and some twisted off and had to used chisel to get the leaves out. I bought a set o 8 point sockets to use on square plugs and use 1/2 extension to turn internal plugs. Lot o extra work but got them out. Replaced with brass ones.

Welcome fellow f36 owner, have pretty much been through most all systems on mine, including new toilets and plumbing.

Look through inspection window or with starter out. Ring gear should solid against the shoulder of the flywheel if any gap it will need to be repaired. Ring gears are available, flywheel not available new.
