Eberspacher 'Ticking'

[Vara]

There is no reason to mount the pump with any screws to bulkhead mine is wrapped in pipe insulation and tie wrapped to adjacent water pipe, result no ticking noise transmitted.
Tip given by Mikuni when I installed it.

Snap Mikuni gave me the same tip and I can confirm its a good one.

on a side note..... don't do what I did ones and decide to take the pump apart. the fuel flow is calibrated using the screw thread on the main body it was an expensive mistake...

Why do people leave their heaters running all night ?

Perhaps a better quality sleeping bag should have been on their Xmas list !

Just turn the heater on in the morning to warm the boat if very cold.

I have slept on board and found ice on deck in the morning but been toasty warm in my sleepng bag.

What wimps you modern sailors have become.

sleeping bag..... by eck.... I want a bit of comfort....
quilt to be found in my aft cabin, And snug as a bug in a rug. dont need the heater on all night, And i cant hear it if it was running

I agree, what utter wimps. I'd never leave my heating on all night, I just leave the electric blanket on low

Thanks for any comments/advice.

Our sailing mentor always told us that if you can't sleep on a boat it's because you haven't had enough to drink
