I finally got my Antares 7,60, year 1997 with TAMD41p-a engine. I need some help from A760 owners...
1. I find out there is not automatic bilge pump installed. What is best solution? To install additional bilge or just a sensor somewhere in the shaft compartment?
2. On engine compartment cover there was gas spring removed.. I can measure that the lenghth od spring should be 600mm, but I don't know the spring respons kg needed. Someone know that data? Also I will glue aluminium foil on the insulation layer as the fabric on the surface is falling apart. What type of foil would be good? I wil glue with Wuerth aerosol glue.
3. Electricity scheme is weird... An isolator on minus? All cables are messed and plus is not fused near baterries.. Did you keep that original scheme? Also charger is located near gasoil tank. I think will move it closer to batteries.
4. I will empty raw water sistem and check the condition of heat exchangers... Can I leave the sistem empty until spring or will there be an corrosion process if I leave it empty?
5. Front right triangular window is broken. I think it's plexi... Can someone confirm that?
6. Fresh water tank... Some DIY ideas for consumption monitoring? Maybe turbo water flow meter?
I will be happy if there are some answers.
Best regards, Tomaz from Slovenia.
