Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Mark performs routine engine maintenance on his Valiant 40-2 at Dana Point on March 4, 2018, replacing the raw water impeller and two drive belts.Watch The impeller came out intact with no missing vanes — he pulled it with pliers, leaving a bite mark — and judged it still serviceable, but the inspection revealed a hose clamp on the pump's intake side he was not satisfied with.0:34 The alternator is a 100-amp Balmar, which he notes is oversized for the engine and runs on a single half-inch belt; both belts were in good shape but replaced anyway.1:30 After reassembly the engine ran without water leaks after five to six minutes at idle.1:49 The outing ends with the crew spotting two whales inside or just outside Dana Point harbor, and an Alberg 30 visible among nearby boats.3:25 Replacing an impeller on schedule, even when it shows no obvious failure, surfaces adjacent issues like marginal hose clamps that would otherwise go unnoticed.
