My 262 Build

[juddmyers]

Any details of how the rear filler cushion seat back rest and engine cover all secure in place?

I can get you some pics of this Friday afternoon or Saturday. Pick her up from summarization and detailing on Friday and this weekend will be our first boating weekend.

To revive this and add to it. No new changes to the boat over the winter. She has just been taken to be summarized, oil change and detailed. I did determine that my RPM gauge is faulty, I will need a new gauge. Sooo.. if any of you happen to have one laying around, let me know or if you know where I can source a new one that will match my original set then that would work also.

What color? Did Kramer get rid of everything yet?
Myself if I had to change I would go with the Kronos faria guage set again. I freaky liked that set I put in one of my boats.

I do not need a set though, just need the tach. So I would love to have the same tach so it all still matches. I thought someone spoke for the set off that parted out boat. I'll reach out and see, just to be safe.

Not sure what color your gauges are jm but JrC’s 263 parts boat had the black face ones (@ the risk of being politically incorrect).

Just went through old pictures and they are black

In other news, my telescoping anchor light broke today. It telescoped out but now won’t go back down. Sounds like it came loose from the boat. I’ll troubleshoot this weekend.

I like my light. It's still working but they have the manual pull up version at innovative lighting. The power ones are discontinued

Call innovative light and ask for the replacement manual " pull up light.

And find your coil. Center plug out of dist..then from your coil trace it to what may be a tach amplifier..or it may go right into the main harness.

Blue.. green haha as BB said. We need to verify you don't have a " open break" in wiring to your tach..

Once that confirmed and then you have the option or send to faria beede or find replacement..

I got that Sun super tach II we are gonna mount to the cowl!

Judd?? I’d thought you would have fixed it already. You know it only took 2 weeks to get my speedo repaired and back spanky new!
$ 175.00 and done.

Here’s the link . Don’t make us bolt a Sun super tach to your bow.

I didn't even attempt it last year. We had done so many other things to the boat, we were just ready to enjoy it for the rest of the summer. Decided I would do it this year.

Not sure what they have against pictures and descriptions on that site!! I am checking on a used one and if that falls through then I will order a new one from here. Did yours match your current set ? I am not sure if mine has the hours built into it or not and my pics do not show. I have called the detail shop and asked them to take a pic when they get time.

[juddmyers]

nevermind .. I see that you had yours repaired and not a new one. I'll see how much a used one is going to cost me and then decide which direction to go with this.

From the company that builds the gauges you can’t go wrong. I thought they sent me a new one it was done, and cleaned perfectly.

This weekend was the second attempt of the first weekend out of 2019 and failed again. She will not start!! Batteries are good, so I believe it is the starter. I have dropped it off at the shop this morning for them to take a look. I guess the 2019 boating season will eventually kick off...

Seems to be the trend for everyone this year...if it’s not mechanical issues it’s the weather.

Hopefully!! Very impatiently waiting to hear back from the mechanic. Weather is only looking good for Sunday this weekend but that will change 75 times between now and then.
