Re: Outdrive, What Model?
Hello all,
I am new to the forum and this is my first post. I have been messing around in boats for years. This is my first outdrive rig.
I have recently purchased a 1995 Regal 256 with a VP Duo Prop.
I am trying to figure out which drive I have also. I have purchased a Clymer manual for the drives.
When I looked at the boat for the second time, I noticed that the props were bent. The dealer said it had happened when they 'parked' the boat and trailer in the yard and they would have the props repaired for the sea trial. They did. However, they did not replace the sac. zink and I would like to instal a new one.
When I search for a zink, all I find are zinks for a 280 or 290 drive.
If I read the manual correctly, I think I have a DP-C1 outdrive. Or where can I find the serial number/model number? The exhaust is not through the prop hub. If that is true, which zink do I need? also, which prop wrench do I need to remove the forward prop?
Also have a port side leaking trim cyl. that I am going to try and reseal with out completely removing the cyl. from the trans. I think I can pull the ram and reseal and reinstal in-place. What are your thoughts on that endever?
Any help is greatly appriciated.
Thanks in advance,
Skip
