    During survey of a freshwater kept 390 one transmission oil sample came back with high sodium. Does anyone have any thought as to why it would have sodium? It is a 2004 and only been in salt water its first 2 years of life. Report mentioned perhaps an additive. What would the additive be?

    OFFICIAL 390/40 Motor Yacht Thread

    I have a 2004 390MY under contract. I wanted to know if and where you would put a battery bank to increase the house bank. The engine room looks very small. Think of an inverter and charging from engines while under way. Solar panels on top of cockpit cover. Looking for advice.

    Speedometer stopped working

    I checked the lower unit yesterday. I found a stick the size of a toothpick in it. Could not get anything in the hole to clean further but did notice a reading of 2 mph now when moving. I will have to wait till I can get it out of the water to investigate further. Thanks for the advice.

    Speedometer stopped working

    I checked today, the tach does not show the speed either. I removed all the plugs from the hub and the back of the gauges. I did not see any corrosion or dirt. Can someone guide me to where I can find the pickup for the speed? I don't see a tube out the stern.
