plug

Just wanting to install a quick drain hose on my 5432 (m-40) Universal. After 5 calls to Kubota/universal dealers including Torrenson, nobody seems to have a clue what the size/thread pitch is for the drain plug. And yes I know I can take out the plug and check the size but Id rather have the...

I have recently acquired a 1973 Ericson 29. The boat is on the hard and the hole in question is on the starboard side of the keel just aft of midships. It is a threaded opening for a plug of some sort. The opening is just over a 1/2" and I can not find any plug to fit. Is this a standard...

I'm starting to get some intermittent starting problems from my engine (MP25) and based on my electrical knowledge and searching on this site, have traced it down to the switches. Does anyone have the replacement part numbers so I can go ahead and order them? Thanks,

Hi folks, does anyone know the part# for the screw on the injector pump bleeding plug on M-25? I opened up the engine compartment to find out that the screw cap somehow (no clue, honestly) broke off. I can open and close it using pliers, but it's a hassle. I've looked all over the...

I recently replaced my glow plug push button switch on our 1989 E-34. While motoring, I noticed an acrid smell, which turned out to be the 'melting' fuse holder I had added in the new, thicker 12 volt wire, supply line to the ignition panel. What could possibly cause that kind of draw?? Turned...

Those plugs above the screws/bolts in grabrails.... Someone on this site mentioned drilling a hole in the plugs and picking at the teak to remove them. Any other techniques that work for you? Paul E29 "Bear" Oceanside, CA

First, let me say I am stupid when it comes to engines. I have a very slow leak at the 1 1/8" (1 1/4"??) diameter engine fresh water drain plug. It has a smaller plug within it, but does not seem to be leaking there. If I back it out a small amount and put polisulfide caulk on the threads and...
