I'll check it out as suggested when I get an extra hand on the boat. I was
looking at it this evening and did notice the spring in its proper
location...Good. On a side note (I should start a new thread but forgot my
password) I have always had water in my bilge and tonight while spraying water
If you have someone run the throttle cable up and down while you watch at the
engine, you should see the lever bottom out at the spring-loaded stop; then
pull the throttle back a bit more and the engine stop mechanism will kick in.
I just replace my engine control cables, and it's easy to feel
Thanks for the diagram. The bracket as illustrated, showing the stop cable
attached, is the one I was previously referring to. Unfortunately, my 1980 LF38
does not have this cable installed.
Thanks for the additional info Fred, sounds like I have the same set up as your
boat. Not sure how stiff
Rich -- my 1979 LF38 has no stop cable, either; you stop the engine by
throttling down to idle; then there's a spring-loaded lever on the throttle
assembly at the engine, where if you pull the throttle lever a bit further, it
stops the engine. This is on a Yanmar 3QM30. It could be that the sp
Rich,
I don't believe I have a stop cable. Would the stop cable attach to a bracket
close to where the throttle cable connects to. I see a bracket where a cable
might attach to there, but no cable. As far as a cable knob, I don't see one
either. Below the engine panel and between the fuel gage
Hi Bill
I have a 3QM30 in my Landfall 38. If you have the original throttle and stop
cable setup on your engine, it sounds as though it needs adjustment or
lubrication.
The engine stop cable when it is pushed in all the way acts as the idle stop.
If either the stop cable is not returning fully

Like Josh, I find the tachometer is most useful for shifting the transmission.
With my 3MQ30, pushing the throttle down too far shuts the engine off...not
what you want to happen while docking. Unfortunately, my tach just recently
only works when the engine is cold...once up to temp, its stops w
I like having a tach but for $20 you can get a portable laser-tach from
amazon. Make sure that the idle is always less than 1000 rpm. Only shift
with the throttle all the way down. Then on the top end of the RPM range
try to run full throttle to prevent coking up the exhaust elbow. As the

My 1979 36' C&C does not have a tachometer and I was wondering if anyone feels
that it is/is not necessary.
Also, is there a tachometer that would be recommended?
