Josh,My oil filter is 4 feet from the original position. After changing oil
I don't want the engine to start until the oil is back to the engine. With tje
compression released, fuel & water off there is no real load on the starter, so
the engine spins faster and less wesr on engine bearings. Hope i explained my
thought process. Doug

I have been using a compression release cable for years on my 3QM30 have not
had any water in exhaust, any other issues. I do close my water intake before
spinning the engine for anything other than starting. During starting I pull
the cable spin the engine for about 5-7 seconds add fuel and push in the cable.
Engine starts right up. When changing my oil, I close my water valve, pull
cable, with fuel off I crank engine until I have positive oil pressure. I have
a remote mounted oil filter (engine has a v-drive, access is horrible) so this
works great.

Josh, I like the idea of the solenoid. As far as using the re-purposed cable
for pre-lube, I’d be concerned about pumping raw water in to the exhaust
manifold. There would not be any exhaust manifold pressure while pumping raw
water. Maybe I’m paranoid? Ron From: CnC-List

Subject: Re: Stus-List Engine Stop Cable - C&C 37+ Hey Ron, You might want to
consider eliminating the pull to stop cable all together. You can see the the
"engine stop solenoid" which the background of my video. The PO installed this
and I love it. I'm thinking of re-purposing the pull cable as a "pull to
decompress". It would then serve 2 purposes - pre start
decompression/pre-lube, and emergency shutdown. https://youtu.be/mdHIt14l0R8

end of the engine stop cable for my Yanmar 3HM35F has rusted so badly that the
cable sticks. The inner part of the original cable appeared to be solid
stainless steel wire. The replacement cable inner part is stranded and
apparently not stainless steel. It was easily attracted to a magnet. I’m
looking for an alternative all stainless replacement. So far, I struck out
with Teleflex/Morse. Does anyone have any recommendations.Regards,RonRon
