Hello Donald, Thank you for your reply. So this is indeed the correct size. See private message for more details. Don't worry about the timing, since we will not be back home until end of August ourselves. I will be looking forward to your reaction by then. Happy sailing, Philip

I had similar leakage, but NOT form the arm or O-ring. After long searching, I found that it was one of the two bolts which clamp the control lever to the injector pump! After taking out the bolt, cleaning and sealing with loctite all seems OK for now.

Sensor Replacement Also my temperature reading became erratic after five years. This winter was the first winter where we left the boat in the water. I have tested the sensor resistance as described by Raymarine, and it seems to be faulty. I will try to install a separate sensor, tied to a...
