I think I may have a couple of problems here but any help on what to check would be helpful. Running our 40odDB at 2100 rpm all is fine and part motor just shuts off. Won't restart, the ignition button has power the alarm sound but not even a clik from the starter. Tried a bunch of times it...

Can't figure out how to post the in the 400 DB forum so I put it here. Has anybody upgraded your microwave to a convection one in a 400 sedan bridge? Wife wants one but I am unable to find one that would fit it the stock location. Didn't want to mess with modifying the cabinet. Any help...

Ok thanks for the replies. My ZF's say to use 30wt oil, so I think the CAT SAO will be fine and iight ad well use it in the Gen set. This way I can just use one type for everything when checking/topping off. I talked toy CAT mechanic and he said to use 10 micron Racors for sure. That is what he...

Couple of questions. I will use the 30wt CAT oil. Will this be ok for the ZF transmitions and the 8K Westerbeke as well? And as far as the Racors I'm told I should run 10 micron filters there. I believe that what I have been using. Also when changing the fuel filters on the engines is there a...

I don`t think they will be a problem while on the hook. I guess time will tell but several people on my dock have changed over to 8Ds and are very happy with the performance and longevity. If one did get below starting amps you would just use the emergency start switch and pull in the 2nd...

Thanks i will try that company and or Sea Ray. By the way the ones at Home Depot have a different hole pattern, i tried them had to re drill the location and can't get them to work properly. I am not a cabinet maker you know.

Don't have a picture as i am not at the boat. I do however know what your talking about and one did just come apart. But 3 have corroded and broke. I did have a port hole leak that i`m sure had a lot to do with it. Jim

Have a 1999 400DB. The hinges for the little mirrored bathroom cabinets keep breaking. Any idea where to get replacements? Per the owners parts manual it looks like P/N 798033 and 798041. I think they are Euro and any that i have found at hardware stores don`t match up corr​ectely.Thanks Jim

Concealed cabinet hinge. (Where to get then) Have a 1999 400DB. The hinges for the little mirrored bathroom cabinets keep breaking. Any idea where to get replacements? Per the owners parts manual it looks like P/N 798033 and 798041. I think they are Euro and any that i have found at hardware...

Yes those batteries are huge. I think about 150 pounds each. But they are super powerful and should last a long time and i don't have to mess with checking the water all the time. I just had my son do most of the work helping the mechanic get them in. i just pointed my finger where i wanted...

Thanks for all the input. Turns out some of the batteries were bad and the charger was probably not up to par. i went ahead and changed over to 2 8D AGM's and a new charger and all has been good. Hopefully these will last a lot longer then the 4 wet cells they replaced. Jim

I need some help again. My mechanics is so far stumped, I`m hoping someone here has some insight. The problem is the port motor will not turn over fast enough to start. It will crank slow and then start clicking like a low battery. If I use the emergency start button it will crank fine and...

Thank you sir. I should have checked it first. It was the main breaker on genset...thanks alot.

Need help. On shore power line 1 and 2 have full voltage but no light on line 1 and line 2 flickers. When I turn to generator mode I lose all 120 volt power and show 0 volts line 1 & 2. Anyone have any ideas. Thanks Jim

Thank guys I will check it out.

My unit stopped working. A friend played around with it and fixed a short. Now I can get the master Stateroom speakers working but nothing else. How can that be? They always worked together before. Is there an amp somewhere to check, any ideas? Thanks in advance. Jim

Ok thanks guys. Sounds like a good job for the wife ... LOL

1999 DB has a grey water sump/tank that dumps overboard. It is gunky and looks dirty. Works fine. What do you do to clean it out or maintenance. Some additive or ?? Any advise is appreciated.

Thanks for the info guys. The tank is only 28 gallons. I think they went to 40 in the next model year. Jim

I posted this in another thread but i think it may have gotten lost in the chatter. Can anyone answer these two questions? (1) What's the simplest or best way to tell what type of anifreeze is in the cooling syatem? The boat is a '99 the motors are 3116's i was told the heat exchangers were...
