Tom, thanks a million for your explanation. I am printing it right now and will have it with me at the boat. I have finally located a NEW gear case Cover for my engine, and am thrilled. Tomorrow I will be at the boat removing all the oil and the coolant ahead of time so that when the mechanic comes ...

PSS Shaft seal
Make sure you measure first the length of the PSS seal vs. the length from the coupler to where the shaft exits the hull... on my CD-33 there is not enough space and I could not install the PSS dry seal. Before you buy it, make sure it fits. ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Gear Case Cover Universal 5424
To all interested... a few days ago I posted a message on the above subject, hoping to find a used cover for my engine. We have successfully welded the cover and hopefully "Goldie" will be herself again. Here are photos: [img]http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid165/pcb496f4847a8431146...

Tom, it took us five hours just to remove the cover, it was quite an ordeal and of course, the bottom bolt, the one hardest to reach, was frozen and broke off, the old gasket with permatex made it almost impossible to separate the cover from the rest of the engine so you can imagine what it took to ...

URGENT! UNIVERSAL DIESEL MODEL 30 #5424 ON CD-33
Hi, all... the above engine on my CD-33 needs a new Gear Case Cover. The existing one has corroded and is leaking oil. When removing the case to replace the gasket, we saw the real reason for the leak. I contacted the Universal/Westerbeke dealer here in Miami, FL. and they tell me the part is no lon...

My CD-33 Bandolera II does surf!. It is actually fun when you get a decent size wave behind you and feel the boat ride the wave on its own. Of course, not the kind of waves that rolled that Santana 22. I think they were quite irresponsible sailors, or maybe they were drunk to be in the position they...

STINKY SMELL BELOW
Change the hose! Yes, it gets impregnated with the smell. Make sure you get the type of hose that will not absorb the smell. They do have that kind. Yes, it is a good idea to heat the ends to make it easier when you connect it. Use a heat gun, the kind they sell in Home Depot or similar. It's a good...
