I am at work now, so I can't verify the size, but I measured the blade, then went to an automotive store and bought the same size for a car. Remove the plastic hardware from the blades so all you have left is the hole. Then get the appropriate size stainless bolt and nylock nut, and install on...
What do you consider "the end"? Having problems, blowing smoke, using oil? How many hours? Just for comparison...My old boat, a '87 Sunrunner 316 with 305's, had 1800 hrs on it, and ran flawlessly. The new owner is in our marina, and although he is a first time boat owner, and does none of...
I am assuming that you have tunnel V-drives as do I. Google "manuvering twin engine boats", or something similar, and you will get much more info than anyone can give you here in a limited space. This boat handles like a dream around docks at slow speed. I came from a 30' with twin stern...
I have a '95 330 as well. Same engines and drives. Last year I had the tabs extended to 12", and the same width as the originals. Just had a metal fab shop tack weld a rectangular shaped stainless 3/16" piece onto the bottoms of the old 9" tabs. The originals have an angled cut on the inside...
Not 330 specific, but was wondering if the hard wired CO detector in the cabin needs to be replaced after a certain amount of time? The ones you can buy for your house have about a 7 year life span before they display an ERR code, and sound a chirp to tell yoiu that it is time to replace the...
I had this problem in my 95 330 recently. First of all, if that mid bilge area is carpeted like mine was, rip it out! I used bleach and water also with less that satisfactory results. When I went up to the marina to get some bilge cleaner to try, one of the mechanics said he was working on a...
In regards to my question about the sudden loud exhaust noise, I think I have the answer as to why it does it, but not how. The upper Mississippi has had a lot of what we call duck weed this year because pf persistently high water. It is like a carpet of grass floating, and cannot be always...
Thanks for the replys so far. I also think that the dual exhaust out the side and under the boat is a quick check for water pumping. I think the idea of the exhaust getting louder after hooking some weeds might have some merit since the Mississippi is FULL of duckweed this year. My port side...
Never heard of this problem before on the forum, so here goes. '95 330 with 454 v-drives. Sometimes when running at cruising speeds around 3300 rpms, all of a sudden it sounds like I am running staight pipes out the back. The loud exhaust sound is coming from under the swim platform, not out...
I was hoping to find someone who has already done the sink addition so I could get ideas on where to get the sink and cold water faucet. Just from looking on the web, it looks like it would be around $300 just for parts! I think the biggest pain would be getting the cold water line up through...
We have a '95 330 Dancer, and we do not have a sink in the cockpit above the port locker. There is a lift up door with a small storage area that has a thru hull drain in it. I have seen sinks in other Sundancers in this area, and assume this was an option when originally ordered. Has anyone...
Now that you mention it, I think I am going to pull the carpet out of of that locker because it is going to get wet just connecting and dis connecting the water. It will never get any air, and will get moldy smelling. I already pulled the carpet out of the mid bilge where the shower sump is...
That's where my 95's hook up is too. The door has a cutout in the bottom to accomodate the shore hose. On a side note, I found that I had more water pressure with my fresh water pump on than I did with the shore water hooked up. I found this unusual since the city water pressure at our hose...
Yea, it sounds like I will let the marina do this before splashing this spring. Shafts won't come out until the boat is off the blocks anyway. BTW the reason I,m doing this is because the props are too close to the struts inducing cavitation burn according to my prop guy. I was going to borrow...
I need to pull the shafts on my 95 330DA with Hurth V-Drives. The coupler in the engine compartment has a nut on the end of the shaft, as well as the four bolts holding the coupler together. I am assuming that the shaft is tapered and keyed on the outer half of the coupler. I have the nut off...
The 17 X 15 props on my 95 330 Sundancer are beyond re-working, and I am looking to change to something different. I hold 4500 WOT with current props, which I think are the originals, and to stay on decent plane, I run about 3300. The guy at the prop shop here in Dubuque, IA said that some...
