The information posted here (above) for the Ford Lehman 120 is incorrect in that it is backwards. The lash is .012 for exhaust and .015 for the intake. I know it seems backwards but this is verified with Brian at American Diesel. Chuck

I have an old Tigres on my 1977 GB42. It has lived a hard life of neglect and is mostly forgotten about until needed. It works great and has never failed. Chuck

Does anybody know the source for Grand Banks window track channel with the felt in place for the laminated side glass? I have a 1977 GB 42 classic. Chuck

I have a 1977 42 classic if that will work for measurments on the ladder.

I have 0516, a 1977. I could use a few things such as cabin doon locks and other little parts. Chuck

I have a 1977 GB 42 if you need any pics or patterns of rear ladder in the stateroom. I also need a working main cabin door lock. Chuck

How to test? My GB42 (twin Lehman) has the same relay(s)? 3 on/off switches on the relay box. Two 8D on left bank and two 8D on right bank plus a 4D to start the Gen. The right bank had a battery failure. I can start the left engine fine. The right engine will barely turn over. No combination...

I was a RADAR tech in the US Navy. Yes, consumer boat RADAR is less powerful than air or surface search RADAR we used in the military. The radiation hazard (RADHAZ) should be published for every unit. If not it can be calculated. RADHAZ is a distance. Like your microwave oven, it heats water...

Thank you for the information Bruce. I do have this manual already from the magic of the interwebs... But this copy and others I found here at TF seem to be a more clean version! Again, thanks! That brings me to the next question; I have a 2008 ADC-140 6N140. Will that be all the same as a...

I am about to survey and possibly purchase a Trawler with a replacement Ford/Lehman 120. It's the American Diesel 140, 6N140. Does anyone have a Service Manual and or operator manual for this? Thanks, Chuck

The voltage listed on the side is the "working voltage". That is the maximum voltage that the capacitor is able to withstand/use without a failure. For the same capacitance (uF) typically the higher working voltage unit will be somewhat larger physically. It does not matter the working voltage...

I am searching for a 34-36 Taiwan trawler. I am moving from sail to a trawler. I did a visit to a 1983 Albin 36 DC last week and I was pretty surprised at how unstable that boat was in initial stability while tied to the dock in relatively calm water. I am comparing it to my 34' sailboat and...

Just last night I was reading some articles on "Passage Maker" regarding diesel engine life and maintenance. Maybe do a search there regarding calculating engine life for more information. It's not just about getting best MPG figures. Over propping has it's downside including dirty engines at...

Before you plan a Fall trip let me add this... I love doing fall trips but for the last several years there have been hurricanes. It does not take a direct hit, just 30 knot winds that last a week or more heading north up the coast to make cruising difficult. If you don't mind possible delays...
