Will help any motor live including black motors. Rebuild on a black or blue motor is about the same!! :eek:
Thanks for the nice words. And this was the one the article was about. |

The next time you turn the key on the pressurized oil from the Accumulator is returned to the oil galley to pressurize all the bearings just as though the oil pump was running, even if it was months since the last time the engine was operated. |
You turn on the key whn you drain the oil to remove the oil from the accumulator. Fill the engine, run it and top it off as the oil will be forced into the accumulator.

Have sold about a dozen of these...very happy customers!
|
Thanks for the orders!
|
I wonder why Mercury/mercuiser engines dont come with them?
Good insurance though:drink: |
Sell more engines without them right!?!?
|
Great winter project!!
|
What is the estimated install time? Where does the accumulator plumb into the system? Is there any way to direct the pressurized oil to the front journals of the crank and rods which are the last to be pressurized by the oil pump? I need 2 by the way!

Usually they tap into the boss for the oil pressure sender with a tee. Anywhere there is a tap you could run the hose.
Install time is as long as it takes to mount the cylinder, tap into a switched lead to open/close solenoid with either switch or key operation and then tie into oil system. Very simple and basic system with great results and longevity. Email me at [email protected] with any other questions or concerns. Thanks, Kirk |
