Josh,
You are way ahead of me. It looks like you have a right angle adapter for the
oil pressure switch. My switch screws right into the engine so may have to
install an adapter so everything clears the alternator belt.
Did you use Teflon tape on the joints? I didn’t because it seems t
Hi Ron,
Interesting thought about the Teflon tape. My guess is that the tape
would get damaged enough during installation to allow a good ground
connection. Of course, you can check it with an ohm meter after
installation to be sure.

I have checked with my meter and so far I have always got a good connection
through Teflon tape. YMMV on that, so check!
For my remote oil sensors/switch/filter assembly, I use a ground wire to that
assembly because the rubber hose obviously doesn’t do the job.

There is a tape that is designed for oil fittings. It is not the same tape as
we use for household plumbing. It looks very similar but the roll I was given
is pink

Rob Massa, thanks very much for your response. From my research, I believe the
Morgan 382 is plywood. I assume that the properties of plywood would be
similar to balsa, but I am not sure. Since I don't own the boat yet, I can't
go digging around in her deck to see if it's rotted.
I'm still
The big issue with plywood coring is that it can wick water long
distances from where it enters the core. End grain balsa coring does not
have that capability.

Get an estimate on the repair of this problem and deduct that amount from your
offer to purchase. It is actually good news because it can save you money and
is a relatively minor issue. I have kept a small portion of my web site for

Michel,
The engine control cables are likely to blame, although the white delrin shift
and throttle lever bushings on the Edson engine controls can, over time, swell
up and make the levers difficult to move. First remove your compass. Then
stick a rag down inside the pedestal to catch any it
David,
I’m not a huge fan of spraying lubricant down inside the cable sheathing as it
tends to only mask the problem rather than solve it. Teleflex engine control
cables are somewhat different than the control cables on bicycles and
motorcycles in that they use a stiff solid steel rod as the a
Before going into the pedestal, try disconnecting the cables at the engine,
and move the levers by hand. I once had a pinhole leak that caused some
corrosion at the levers, which caused the problem you are experiencing.

I had never looked before yesterday but was able to quickly find electronic
gage senders. You wouldn't need to plumb a gage all the way to the gage
board, just wires.
Also remember that the Teflon tape or pipe dope isn't to make a seal it is
to lubricate the threads so that they can screw togethe

I agree with both conclusions.

Also remember NEVER use teflon tape on fuel lines for any reason. It
dissolves.

There is a special yellow teflon tape that is /supposed/ to be okay for
gasoline, but I don't know of any form that is safe for diesel.

Hi Bill,
Is there a special/diesel pipe dope or sealer I should be using? Maybe I
should pull the yellow tape off. . .
Thanks, Lee

This is the time of the year when everything comes off and gets a good wash. I

Apparently the yellow tape is both thicker and a lot denser material
than the white stuff, Oatey makes both flavors.

I checked all the usual suspects and didn't see any exact replacements. You
could buy a tiller head fitting from Edson (
http://www.edsonmarine.com/ecatalogs/T1/00010.htm) and adapt it, or have a
new head fitting machined to match the Edson tiller fittings. Or have a
whole new one made by Garhauer.
Welcome, by the way.

Looks great. This project is on my winter work list as well. Guess it’s time
to order mine before they’re all gone.
