    Wallas Stove / Heater

    I always have outboard started before firing up my Wallas. Also, I never turn off boat master switch until the fan stops. I agree that low voltage may be an issue.

    Wallas Stove / Heater

    I just leave my Wallas set on high all the time. Never a problem since 2005, when I bought the Mikey!

    Wallas reminder

    My 2005 CD lays up 6 mos every year. No problem ever with Wallas heater. We use clean kero. I leave thermostat on high all the time and always let unit cool down before turning off master switch on the boat. So far, so good

    Suzuki DF90A Stalling

    Had to replace my 2005 Suzy 90. My mechanic could not do a permanent fix. Got 1450 hrs on the old engine. Apparently a bad design. My mechanic says new DF90A is a much better engine. We shall see.

    List to Starboard

    My 22 cruiser always has listed to starboard, even when new. I try to keep port fuel tank full to compensate. I weigh 230, and with helm on starboard, that causes the list to starboard, I think. Lenco trim tabs help, also.

    2004 Marineco/AFI wiper blade refills?

    Thanks, but it looks as if I am going to have to replace the blades themselves. Got the wrong wiper blade holders again from C-Dory. It will be easier to replace the blades with wiper arms off, I think.
