This topic caught my attention, as I've been meaning to send the list an update
on the same issue I recently experienced. I have a 3JH2TE (turbo) on a new to
me J/42. When running the engine this spring, we noticed oil dripping out of
the air intake filter. After a series of troubleshooting
I just completed a total head plumbing refit on our new boat, and wanted to
concur with Adrian's comments. I ended up adding a new holding tank as well
(long story) and fortunately I was able to figure out the model of the OEM
Kracor tank. Ronco then used that info and came up with a nearly
I have a new (to me) Yanmar 3JH2-TE turbo, and after running it for the first
time in a number of months, I noticed oil coming from the hose that leads from
the turbo to the air intake. Additionally, the air filter was pretty oily.
My first thought is the seals in turbo are shot.. do they
I’m the third owner and have cared for this yacht for 22 years. She is well
equipped for short handed sailing. She has modern electronics and all the
amenities for cruising.She was repowered in 2014 with a rebuilt Yanmar
3GM30F and a Flex-o-Fold feathering prop. Her sail inventory is in
I've owned our 34 Ladyhawke for 22 years. It was originally named Kings Ransom
and docked on a lake in Houston TX - pretty much used as a waterfront condo.
Second owner renamed her, berthed her in Pocasset, MA and rarely used her (name
apropos). While I raced her for 15 years here in
When I bought our 34 back in 1996 I noticed unused holes about 10" under the
boom. It took me a few years to figure out the boom had been raised by prior
owner; this was when I was measuring for a new main and the old sail
measurements were shorter than the specs. So I don't have good
I was able to get an oil pressure gauge and install it temporarily on the
3GM30F. I definitely have oil pressure, but it was interesting to see the
results. I enclosed some vid links in case anyone was interested in
hearing/seeing these results. At 2500 rpm immediately after start up the
Thanks for the replies and insights. After adding the new sensor I motored up
and down coast for 60 minutes at 2,800-3,000 rpms. Slowed down every ten
minutes to see if low oil pressure alarm sounded at lower rpms. All is good. I
think I ran the engine hard enough to recreate the scenario

I had a Martec folding prop on my 34 and upgraded to a flex-o-fold when I
repowered to a 3GM30. Originally intended to go with a 2 blade folding
Flex-o-Fold, but after doing some research and talking with locals owners, I
went with the 3 blade feathering and LOVE IT. Tons of grab in reverse,
All, after a bit of research in the archives, I'm posing this question to the
group as I work to replace the final two thru hulls on my 34 (head sink and
head pump out). From what I've learned the original C OEM thru hulls
(Wilcox Crittenden?) are no longer available.Mine are flush
I replaced and old 2QM20 with a newer 3GM30F in my 34 back in 2014. I had to
"shrink" the bed rails but overall the alignment came out good and would have
been more complex with a different engine. I had to disassemble parts of the
2QM to get it out.. fuel lift pump, valve cover, etc; it
Just wanted to thank everyone for the responses. I was able to complete a
trade with a fellow lister, but appreciate all the other info that was shared.
This is list is invaluable.. sending Stu more $$

I've been working to trouble shoot a similar problem but with the wireless
GWind on my NM2K network. I believe I am getting a voltage drop to the
network, but haven't been able to figure out how to fix it. For example, I'll
have only my house battery on and then I lose wind readings on the
Had a beautiful day sailing off the coast of NH the other day in 15kts, but
unfortunately we blew out our aging genoa. Wondering if any 34 owners have a
good-very good Roller Furling genoa that you might be looking to sell. I'm
looking for something between 130-155%. I'm willing to pay up
