Re: Stus-List Tuning my rig
Hi Sam, The rule (measuring tape) technique seems to be the most accurate. maybe the best approach is to do it once and when completed, use the Loos gauge and record the numbers. That way you can repeat the same set-up every year (if you step your mast every spring).

Stus-List 29mkII prop info
The owner of my previous boat a 29 mkII hull #312 needs some prop info. The boat has a folding two blade that I am pretty sure was factory installed. It no longer unfolds properly and vibrates. He has found someone in California that will rebuild it. He is also looking at replacing it. No one he has talked to knows the shaft size and taper. He also needs the diameter and pitch. Any information you all can provide will be a great help. David Mocny C&C 37+ Obsession ___ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
Re: Stus-List 29mkII prop info
Hi David, I have hull number 506, RH 14x10, 7/8" shaft. Martec, had mine rebuilt by them due to favorable comments from this list, been great since, maybe six years ago. I attached a small pic, but it's held up, may not go through. randy Tamanawas 29-II Hood River, OR From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of DAVID R MOCNY Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2013 4:22 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List 29mkII prop info The owner of my previous boat a 29 mkII hull #312 needs some prop info.

Stus-List fuel filter change
How do you change the fuel filter on a yanmar 3gm Jim Bradley Allegro Andante Barrie Ontario ___ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
Re: Stus-List fuel filter change
Shut the fuel off. Unscrew the cup. Pull out the filter. Insert a new one. Fill the cup with new fuel. Screw the cup back on. Open the vent. Pump the priming/lift pump lever until the filter cup is fully vented. In case you don't know, the lift pump is on the right side of the engine, about halfway down and one third of the way forward of the flywheel. It will be the first thing on the engine that the fuel flows into. The filter is next in line moving forward. The lift pump should have a little flipper that you can push up and down to manually prime the system.

Re: Stus-List fuel filter change
FYI - The last little press of the flipper is where the actual pumping happens. If this is really short, the pump is probably on the lobe of the cam. Turn the engine over a bit to get on the flat part. Hope that makes sense.
