Out of curiosity, I looked up my CS dimensions. It is a 13.750 x 7. I am able to reach max RPM at full throttle (about 25 to 50 rpm shy) and cruise at 2400 to 2600 rpm at about 6.25kts and max at about 7.1 to 7.2kts at 3150 rpm.

I suck oil out through the dipstick
Filter should only be hand tight
Coat new filter gasket with a bit oil before screwing it in.
Read manual on your engine for amount of oil. Generally it takes just over four quarts. Check dipstick while changing to make sure you don't overfill. "Been there done that" and had to suck a bit back out. A PIA if discovered after you have cleaned up and put away your pump.;-)

Quote from: Schulcb on August 27, 2024, 07:36:03 AMI have a 34 mk2 with the M35B engine with a campbell sailor prop.
Stamped on one side of the hub is"D14 RH P8". On the other side is "S20707"
I have photos, but can't figure out how to attach them.

Quote from: waughoo on August 25, 2024, 09:39:42 PMI recently bought a campbell sailor. They run different pitches and diameters than stock so Ron's recommendations are not likely accurate for the CS prop. The fellow that sells them has a rather long back log of data and can recommend the correct pitch and diameter for your boat.

Then take a piece of paper towel and wrap it around each and EVRY hose connection!!! Operate the boat so all of the functions under the galley sink have water flowing thru them.
Then check each for wetness!!![]()

Quote from: waughoo on July 30, 2024, 08:42:27 AMHere is another possibility... the temp and pressure valve on the hot water tank releases water out of the tank when water temp or pressures get too high. When you run the boat's engine, you heat the water enough to expand its volume and thus raise the pressure in the hot water loop. The T&P valve will open slightly and bleed off some of this pressure and some of the water as well. Since your tank is likely older, the hose that came with the tank's T&P valve has long since disappeared so now the water drips onto the raw plywood shelf Catalina made to hold the tank. This water gets discolored by the plywood and eventually ends up in the bilge.
