Marinediscounters New Brick & Morter Location
First allow me thank the hundreds of you who have called asking for advise(and subsequently buying parts). It is great to talk to actual people and get to know some of you. In March of 2010 I opened my retail store "Marine Discounters" at 1027 1st street here in Sandusky, Ohio. The store is a huge hit. We stock everything for maintaining your vessel and keeping those engines running smoothly. In the last few days we took on Wix filters. I believe you will find my pricing VERY competitive. Filters for Onan, Kohler, Westerbeke, Yanmar, Detroit Disiel, Cummins, Volvo, Catapiller are matched with high quality Wolfs Head motor oils as well Rotella T. We stock wix filters for gas engines as well, however the Sierra line is as good and even more competitively priced. I've learned that windshield wiper blades and inserts by Anco are almost impossible to find(at least around here). We have it all. Our Seachoice house line of products consists of high quality products, manufactured by such nationally known company's as Johnson pump, Taylor Made, and Perko. Looking for dock lines? Be sure to call 419-625-0605. Our double braided lines are literally half price of many of our competitors. In need of bulk stainless steel fasteners? Once again, we are blowing the competition away. If in northern Ohio, between Cleveland and Toledo be sure to stop in and say "Hi".
Kanberra Gel Great For Storage & Air Conditioning Duct
We recently took on a distributorship for Kanberra Gel here at www.marinediscounters.com. Many of you have trusted me for years with your mechanical and Vacuflush questions. Allow me too recommend Kanberra gel for your boat/yachts storage and air conditioning systems. This product does an excellent job of eliminating mold, mildew, bacteria and many common viruses. I have customers putting the containers in the head to eliminate sanitation line odors as well as that rotten egg smell(that by the way comes from red pop being put in the fresh water tank during winterizing). This product is based with all natural Tea Tree Oils. Simply set a container on the galley table, dresser, in a closet, etc. The enzymes will dissipate through the space and eliminate mold and mildew spores as well as bacteria on a molecular level. The canister will empty to about a pea size in a few weeks however the affects will last for up to 3 months. Place the container in the air conditioning systems return air stream and allow the enzymes to permeate through the duct work eliminating mold, mildew, bacteria as well dust mites. A very mild pleasant aroma ensues. www.marinediscounters carries the 2 oz. size good for head and closet spaces. The 4 oz. is good for boats 20 ft. and under. The 4 oz. is good for boats 40 ft. and under and boats over 40 ft. will uses multiple containers. For the discerning yachtsman scoop out the product and place in a container in light sconces, etc. For more details check there web site at www.kanberragel.com then come back to www.marinediscounters.com for your usual best prices.
This is just one of many new product offerings coming soon. As always, only the best quality, proven products will get my personal endorsement.

Fix for Chrysler marine alternaters
I recently had a customer come into my shop at Pflieger Marine Services(419-625-0605) with a problem of a Chrysler marine 318 engine that the alternator would not charge. The alternator on a Chrysler marine engine has been obsolete (as have been parts for said alternator) for years. I was able to make a fast and fairly inexpensive solution to this problem.
Remove the Chrysler marine engine alternator. Purchase part number AR20102 at http://www.marinediscounters.com/. This is a new alternator made by Arco. It is a Delco style alternator and I am going to tell you how to make it work.
Install Arco alternator on Chrysler marine engine. Install the gray or purple number 10 wire on the large stud on the back of the Arco alternator. Now cut the orange wire with the small ring terminal off and tape it. This wire is no longer used. Make sure the belt is tight and tighten the alternator. Now go to the rear of the engine next to the starter. You will find a black box mounted on a plate and next to it will be a relay. Find the other end of the orange wire you cut and cut it off here and tape it. This wire is no longer used. Remove the small black box. It is the old voltage regulator. It will be mounted on the plate and have rubber foot mountings. Gray or purple number 10 wire that is now connected to the back of the alternator will probably be connected to the voltage regulater. Disconnect this, install a larger ring terminal on the end of the wire and connect this number 10 wire to the incoming side of the starter solenoid. The small ground strap left where the voltage regulator was may be eliminated as may the short wire that ran from the relay to the voltage regulator. This is very simple and can be done in about 10 minutes. As always, feel free to Pflieger Marine Services at 419-625-0605 for free technical advise and thank you for buying your marine parts at http://www.marinediscounters.com/. Since this posting, I now (2/9/12) have even more savings for you as I have a new line of alternaters that is 1/2 price from the Arco ones. Also, due to huge response I have learned that there are 3 different mountings to your Chryler engine. No worries simply call Marinediscounters at 419-625-0605 or email me a pic. at boatdoc@marinediscounters.com

YES, your boats holding tank can be full.
I have had an absolute rash of customers with a similar Vacuflush problem. They come to me(Pflieger Marine Services 419-625-0605) and say " my vacuflush toilet won't make any vacuum but it does run" or "my Vacuflush toilet runs for a while and trips the breaker without making any vacuum".
I almost always tell them to check if there waste holding tank is full. The reply is inevitably, "it CAN"T be full, we just had it pumped out".
If your Vacuflush system is running without shutting off, and making NO VACUUM there is a good chance the tank is full or the vent line is plugged. When the Vacuflush pump comes on and pumps liquid to the waste holding tank, the air in that tank must be displaced out the vent line. If this does not happen the waste tank becomes pressurized. Once this happens the pump can not push against the back pressure thus no vacuum is made or(if the pump motor is weak) the breaker will trip. Worst case scenario is an exploded tank in the bilge.
If the vent line is plugged(from overfilling into it, corrosion or spider webs) then it can not be pumped out either. You may take the boat to the pump out and suck it out a little(usually just relieving the pressure on the tank) but with out positive airflow through the vent line the waste holding tank can not be pumped out. A trick is to hold down the foot pedal at the toilet thus giving a vent there.
The test is simple . Remove vent line from tank(carefully). Now flush toilet. If liquid pumps out of vent fitting, guess what? Now take boat to pump out (with this connection open) and pump out waste holding tank. After that check for a Sealand vent filter. If your boat is equipped with a Sealand vent filter, water in that filter will pack the activated charcoal thus stopping the venting action. Replace the Sealand vent filter. They may be purchased very inexpensively at my website www.marinediscounters.com. If no vent filter is present then check for water or T.P. in a low spot in the hose. Also look at the vent discharge fitting at the side of the boat. If it is a chrome fitting as is used on Vikings, egg harbor and ocean yacht the screen inside will corrode or be packed with spider webs and stop the venting action. As is always our policy, please feel free to call for free technical assistance at 419-625-0605 and we appreciate your business at www.marinediscounters.com.
