How many of you guy's use a preluber on your engines? Better yet, who is thinking about adding one to there setup? Well, I just finished a install on Maximus and I had some custom brackets made up by a local shop. As you know, the first set is always the most expensive. I was wanting to see what kind of demand I would have for these before I order 50 to see what kinda of a deal I can give. Let me know what you guys think please.

I appreciate it!

A few more...

That is a nice looking setup. You did a very good job.

I had the same unit on my last boat and thought it was worth the money.

However I went with the KE units on my present boat mainly because I wanted the ease of oil changes.

I can completely drain all the oil out of a warm engine in five minutes start to finish right out of the bottom of the drain pan without even getting in the boat.

Hey Doc,
That unit that you have, do you just disconnect on end and pump it into a bucket? If you use it as a preluber where does the other end connect to?

Thanks,
John

nice setup

I installed the Marine Accusump setup (Canton) last spring with the electric valve, Very happy so far + you get to run a lower oil level in the sump which is always a plus

Hey Mark,
Do you have any pictures of your set up on your motor? I would like to see it.

Thanks,
John S.

not bad, looks nice. similiar to these

I posed this question several months ago. I didn't get too many responses on the prelubers being used. I was thinking of adding one this season, but my engine builder and others have said, don't waste your money.

I have heard it said many times that 90% of the bearing wear is at start up before pressure developes, don't ask an engine builder that is taking the bread out of his mouth what answer did you expect???
