Confirmed! Ran on auto pilot for an hour or two today. Not a drop leaked. Prior owner said they tried for 19 years to solve the leak. Issue is they were the wrong seals, needed to be a 1/16" or so, thicker. The added split-rings kept the seals from moving back and forth. Very gratifying.

Update I used nylon split rings to take up the 1/32" slop in the lip seal on the outer shaft area. That appears to have solved the leak. Likely the cup seals were shifting around in use. This sort of thing - not this exact one...

install piston seal Oh yes, I found the most wonderful way to easily get them on! I used a long zip tie, but anything similar should work. You put one side of the seal in the groove, with the tie running through the center and holding both ends in one hand. Captivate the seal in the groove...

Correct PN 3100027

I got about 5 gals out, checked the intercooler heat exchanger - dry. Installed 1⅜ freeze plug engine block heater zero start 3100027 (35mm) also. 1987 perkins T6-354M. Flushed 3X, without running. Flushing with water showed me I needed to replace the O-ring with an ever so slightly...

Installed zerostart 3100027 in my Perkins with 1⅜ freeze plug hole (vs newer 1 ¼) equivilent to 35mm. Old stock, had to install a fresh o-ring to get a good seal. Glad I flushed with water to observe the initial leak. Overnight running of the block heater cut start up smoke by 75%. Very...

Square O-rings! Imagine that. I'll keep that in mind if the c-cup shaft seals leak. That's what was in there. And that's what Olympic sent me. But it could be the prior owner rebuild installed the wrong parts (c-cup) because that was sent to him also. I agree regarding leakage, and so I...

Olympic says my ram can't exist!! Funny, how the world turns. :blush: My Ram doesn't match the drawing, so it doesn't exist. I doubt anyone modified it, so it must be a really early model (1973?), or ... My seals are outside the tube as shown in the prior drawing, vs inside the tube for most...

Thanks. Was that manual for the upper helm or for the ram? I sent an email with the above drawing to Sean at Olympic. I'll call Monday afternoon if I don't hear from him. I believe the internal push on retaining ring is only for units as illustrated in the original drawing to retain the seal...

Finished the rebuild, yet untested but extra parts! The rebuild was super easy and took under an hour. You can NOT buy the parts any cheaper than from Olympic. I sourced locally too, and was at $60 vs thier 45 when done. "Internal self locking push on locking rings", came with the kit...

35mm is 1⅜". I successfully installed zerostart PN 3100031 in my Perkins engine block. Engine is a 1987 T6-354M (T for turbo, M for marine). Perhaps it was a very old part with a dried o-ring, but I needed to change the O-ring with an ever so slightly thicker one, and it has sealed perfectly...

Wagner Dealers - entire seal kit Baltimore Hydraulics - kit $119 Hamilton Jet - $94 Olympic Drives - $45. OK. I'll buy the kit and do a full rebuild. I've done it before and its about 1-2 hours. I'll try to buy the same parts locally when in hand, then post the common PNs.

Hello, I am looking for the shaft seal - I think item 11 in the Wagner part breakout. I have a pretty good leak where the shaft exists the tube. PO said he rebuilt the entire unit a couple years ago, and the leak started shortly thereafter. I don't need the entire rebuild kit for $120...

Thanks!

Thanks! I've ordered two 1/4" npt valves from Amazon, and hose barbs. How many gallons does she hold? My engine is an '86.

Restart old: How do you keep from getting coolent on your starter? Does anyone know the bolt size of the drain so I can buy a fitting with valve? I'd like to refresh coolent every 2 or 3 years.

Thanks, good advice. How do you drain the antifreeze without soaking the Starter? Do you put an adapter in the drain hole to connect up a hose?

Thanks!! That makes me pleased with the direction I am attempting to go. I'm hoping to have a heater fabricated that will go through the aft plate by the top of the #6 cylinder as I have heavy smoke for 10 minutes after start until the engine comes up to temp. Same as the obsolete Perkins...

Did it work to eliminate the heavy smoke on your Perkins start up?

Still avail? I'll guess you sold out this summer?

If you can get to the outside vent, run your shop vac hose in as far as you can and suck it clean.

Old senders Amy Any chance you still have the old senders? My port engine has has gotten flaky . Single station set up. Current sender is 811532.
