Re: 55 years ago I was given this USAF 54 3100
Just some updates. Now that its monsoon season here on the coast its time to attend to other issues. The new breakers finally arrived and await install. Hopefully the new 8 gauge wiring and these higher amperage (50A) will stand up to the 40-45 amp Spal Fan draw. Nothing like being halfway thru a cruise and having the voltmeter go to zero and the temp gauge try to peg. Oddly engine kept running!?!?
FWIW The Chinese filter makers (like 99% of all filters available) have redesigned the latest clear ones with plastic supports to hold the filter cartridge against the outflow end. Not sure if glue is being used anymore. I dislike the metal cans but distrust the clear ones even more.
Will post pics of both issues soon.
