SDA71 Tight Spaces and Volvo Engines

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, Dockmaster Keith helps us trade slips with Seawind 1260 'Butters' in a very tight slip. Keith's instructions and help make it much easier than we anticipated. Afterward it's time to service our Volvo MD2030 29hp, 3cylinder diesel engines... except the oil change. We don't have a container for the used oil Ordering parts for old engines can be dicey. The belts and the oil filters are different sizes from what we had before, but they just might be an improvement! 00:00 Intro/This episode 00:27 Moving Seawind 1260 'Butters' out of a tight slip 02:55 'Butters' rounds the bend 04:01'Dark Angel' 180 degree spin off the dock into the slip 07:33 Volvo MD2030 diesel engine maintenance service 08:35 alternator belt issue 09:04 sea strainer service 10:07 remove and replace impeller 11:29 remove and replace belt 13:29 remove and replace Racor filter 15:35 remove and replace fuel water filter 16:57 fuel primer pump 17:58 start the engine/leak test Join us on this adventure of a lifetime.
