    (A). In service, however, the sump fitted as standard on the M65 and as an option on the M85T (B) may operate continuously at a heel angle of 20 , and intermittently (i.e.
  • Page 8: Installation Angles (Continued)

    Chapter 1 TPD 1399E Installation angles (continued) The engine is suitable for installation so that in side view the crankshaft is horizontal, or ‘flywheel down’ to a maximum of 17 (A). An allowance has been made for an additional 3 rise to occur in service, when climbing waves or starting to plane.
  • Page 9: Alignment Of Engine

    TPD 1399E Chapter 1 Alignment of engine The following method may be used:- Place the engine on the bearers in the hull (A) and adjust its position until it is aligned to the propeller shaft, both when viewed from above and from the side.
  • Page 10: Engine Bearers

    Chapter 1 TPD 1399E Engine bearers Many types of engine bearer have been found to be satisfactory in service, including:- Foam filled f.r.p. with metal plates bonded in, which are drilled and tapped during engine installation. Plywood, with epoxy or f.r.p. coating. Steel channels, attached to bulkheads fore and aft.
  • Page 11: Propeller Shaft Couplings

    TPD 1399E Chapter 2 Propeller shaft couplings Flanged shaft couplings can be supplied with any gearbox. The couplings are pilot bored and must be machined to suit the propeller shaft, and provision must be made to take thrust, both ahead and astern. The following machining procedure is recommended.
  • Page 12: Part Finished Shafts

    Chapter 2 TPD 1399E Part finished shafts Where the precise shaft length can not be determined until the engine has been fitted in the boat, propeller shafts are sometimes supplied with excess length, to be completed locally. In these cases a clamp type coupling (A) should be used, and it is not necessary to machine a shoulder on the shaft end to take forward thrust.
  • Page 13: Exhaust Systems

    TPD 1399E Chapter 3 Exhaust systems The exhaust elbow incorporates a water feed connection A wide range of exhaust components are available for (A1) which may be used to cool a shaft stuffing box, use with all types of exhaust systems. Some of the and a sampling point (A2) for temperature or pressure components are designed to connect together, allowing measurements.
  • Page 14 Chapter 3 TPD 1399E Caution: It is essential that the exhaust system is designed so that water from the exhaust does not enter the engine under any conceivable operational condition. It is important that there is sufficient flexibility in the exhaust hose to allow the engine to move on its flexible mounts.
  • Page 15: Dry Systems

    Dry exhaust systems are most commonly used with The minimum bore of the exhaust pipe should be engines which are keel cooled. This arrangement 40mm (1.6 inches) for the M65 and 63.5mm (2.5 is particularly useful for commercial or leisure craft inches) for the M85T.
  • Page 16: Water Lift Systems

    Chapter 3 TPD 1399E Water Lift Systems In sailing yachts and deep draught displacement boats it may be found that the engine exhaust outlet is near or below the waterline, and a water lift exhaust system is then an option that may be considered. The main features of such a system are shown in (A).
  • Page 17: Part Wet / Part Dry Systems

    TPD 1399E Chapter 3 Part wet / part dry systems (2. 1/2”) for the M65 and 76mm (3”) for the M85T. The In some installations this arrangement may be chosen dry part of the system should be insulated to avoid in place of a water lift.
  • Page 18: Systems For Operation At High Angles Of Heel

    The minimum diameter of the dry part of the system should be 40mm (1.6 inches) for the M65 and 76mm (3 inches) for the M85T and the wet part of the system should be not less than 63.5mm (2.1/2inches) for the M65 and 76mm (3 inches) for the M85T.
  • Page 19: Engine Room Ventilation

    TPD 1399E Chapter 4 Engine Room Ventilation The engine room must be ventilated for two reasons: • To supply the engine with air for combustion. • To provide a flow of air through the engine room to prevent an excessive temperature build up, which may cause components such as the alternator to overheat.

    TPD 1399E Chapter 5 Engine Cooling Systems Sea Water Systems A completely separate sea water system should be provided for each engine to prevent a blockage resulting in the need to shut down more than one engine. A typical system is shown on (A). The water intake fitting (A1) should not project appreciably below the bottom of the hull and it should be situated well clear of other components such as...
  • Page 22: Keel Cooling System

    Chapter 5 TPD 1399E Keel cooling system The M65 and M85T may be purchased in a form suitable for keel cooling. The engine connections provided for the cooler are to suit 32mm outside diameter rigid pipe, as shown in (A) and (B). The connection for the flow to the keel cooler is shown at (B1) and the return at (A1).
  • Page 23: Fuel Systems

    Fuel connections The M65 engine has connections for a fuel feed from the tank at the fuel lift pump (A2) and a fuel return to the tank from the fuel filter head (A1).
  • Page 24: Fuel Tanks

    Chapter 6 TPD 1399E Fuel tanks possible a tank should only supply one engine, but in any case each engine should have its own fuel Fuel tanks should have the following features: pipes, from tank to engine. • The filler neck (A2) should be raised so that water will not enter when filling.
  • Page 25: Multiple Tanks

    TPD 1399E Chapter 6 Multiple tanks Where multiple fuel tanks are necessary the following methods are suitable. • A main tank, with flow and return connections for the engine or engines, into which other tanks can be drained by gravity. •...

    Chapter 7 TPD 1399E Interconnecting cables and ‘Y’ harness Interconnecting cables (A) are used to join the engine loom to the instrument panel(s). Cables are made in 4m and 6m lengths and all cables have a male plug (A1) at one end and a female (A2) at the other. Cables may be plugged together to give up to 12m length, but in general if a longer cable is required it should be ordered as a special item, to be made in one piece.

  • Page 36: Zinc Anode Bonding System

    Chapter 7 TPD 1399E Zinc Anode Bonding System Caution: The engine may be damaged by electrolytic corrosion if the correct bonding procedure is not adopted. Please read the guidelines below carefully. Electrolytic corrosion within the engine cooling system and transmission can be much reduced or eliminated by bonding the engine to a Zinc anode which is used to protect the through hull metal fittings and other metal components that are in contact with sea water.
  • Page 37 TPD 1399E Chapter 7 It is important to include the propeller shaft in the bonding system (A1), as the electrical path through the gearbox is not effective due to the gearbox oil acting as an insulator. The electrical connection to the shaft may be made by means of graphite brushes riding on the shaft or a braided battery strap (A2) which should make contact with 90...
