Re: Transmission output flange fell off Yanmar 2QM15 - Theories re: why?
Odd that no one has mentioned the use of a feeler gauge. Sort of useful in determining parallel flange faces after centering the coupling. This can be done after you know that the coupling and prop shaft are fitted properly( this may need the machine shop lathe )
Re: Transmission output flange fell off Yanmar 2QM15 - Theories re: why?
It is possible that the vibration that you now feel is from the new flange, and the old transmission shaft not mating perfectly. The new flange surface should be exactly perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the flange. This isn't likely to happen unless you can get the transmission and the flange to a good machine shop.
However, you might try the following simple fix to lessen the issue; remove the bolts holding the prop shaft coupling to the transmission output flange. Align the holes so that the next hole on the propeller shaft aligns with any given hole on the transmission output shaft (move it one hole). Put everything back together, and try it out.
If the characteristic of the vibration changes, you confirmed my theory. If it changes for the better, keep it there. If it changes for the worse, try aligning a different set of holes.
Re: Transmission output flange fell off Yanmar 2QM15 - Theories re: why?
Great news... I wonder if the vibration you feel now in the tiller was always there, but overshadowed by all the other 'bump and rumble' you had before....
Re: Transmission output flange fell off Yanmar 2QM15 - Theories re: why?
As an update, we received a replacement flange and locking nut from a friend who came to visit us from back home. We also decided to replace the engine mounts, as one of the adjustment bolts spun in its rubber housing when I tried to adjust the alignment.
As we all suspected, the new flange had much longer teeth and gripped the transmission output spline much better. There was no wiggle between the spline and the new coupling, so Gary's point about the spline being made of harder metal than the coupling (and remaining undamaged) appears to be true. The old flange must have just been reamed out by the spline due to engine misalignment.
To complete the repair, first I installed the new coupling and spun on the locking nut. On the advice of a local mechanic I used a flat punch and a hammer to get the last little bit of torque on the locking nut, then used a cold chisel to calk it in and lock it in place.
Next was to replace the engine mounts. I borrowed a car jack and lifted one corner of the engine at a time, sliding out the old mount and sliding in the new. This was a relatively painless process that took an afternoon.
Finally came realignment of the engine. There are other guides out there on how to do this properly, but suffice to say that when I first checked the alignment on the old engine mounts, the transmission output coupling was probably 1/4 to 1/2 inch below the prop shaft coupling. This would explain the vibration issues, the worn cutless bearing, and the eventual failure of the coupling. The vibration and noise should have been a clue a long time ago, but it took separating the two coupling parts to actually see how bad it was.
After completing repair, we took the old girl out in the bay for a sail. Immediately we could feel and hear the difference. Our feet felt barely a buzz through the cockpit floor. The prop shaft swished smoothly straight through the packing gland where before it was a vibrating blur. With the new mounts, the motion of the engine itself had changed from a battering shake to a calm rumble. As we motored along, the cat took to perching with his belly on the companionway stairs like he was snuggled up to a purring mother.
If you haven't checked your alignment recently, I highly recommend it.
PS - On that last trip, I did notice more vibration transmitted through the tiller than we remembered from before. I feel pretty confident about my alignment job, so could there be some other reason why the rudder has more vibration?
Re: Transmission output flange fell off Yanmar 2QM15 - Theories re: why?
I just looked in my Yanmar Parts Catalogue and the flange (item 26) looks different from the one in your picture. The one in the catalogue looks much deeper so more spline length. Attached is what I show. Is it possible you have the wrong flange.

Re: Transmission output flange fell off Yanmar 2QM15 - Theories re: why?
any auto parts store will have feeler gauges,and good luck to you have a wonderful trip wherever you're headed baby will cross paths one day.......CaptG
Re: Transmission output flange fell off Yanmar 2QM15 - Theories re: why?
Thanks Gary for the good advice. Unfortunately the hammer blows were my no-no. I used a wood chisel to pry the two coupling pieces apart. I think heat/dirt/rust conspired to glue the two pieces together. It was the only way I could get the coupling apart to get at the locking nut. Since the photos were taken I've filed off the metal bits at the edges of the flanges that got bent by the chisel, and polished it all with a fine scotch brite pad, so all that's left should be the pristine inner surface of the coupling discs minus a millimeter or two on parts of the very outer edges (outside of where the four bolts hold the coupling together anyway). Suppose that'll be all right?
From all the reading I've done the past few days, I'm pretty concerned about trying to get off the shaft coupling to take it to a machinist without destroying it and/or the prop shaft. If I could simply keep it attached and adjust the engine alignment to match, I'd be much happier.
Where does a person acquire a feeler gauge or dial indicator, generally? Is that an auto shop buy, a Home Depot thing, an industrial supplier? It'll be a new addition to my tool bag.
Thanks again.

Re: Transmission output flange fell off Yanmar 2QM15 - Theories re: why?
hello Jeff, I have done many many engine alignments, and I'm going to suggest to you by observation of the pictures that either your output shaft coupling or the shaft coupling or both were hit many times by a hammer that is a definite no-no. This is probably what initially started the problem. That is why I suggest that you have both couplings put in a lath at the machine shop,and the mating surfaces machined. Whenever I replace one coupling I always do this unless they are both in really good condition. The seal rides on the output shaft coupling which is more than likely damaged you will find the seal in the output shaft bearing housing I can plainly see it in the picture. There is no sense in making a repair that could cause more damage. Also to answer your other question about vibration, when you're engine is in neutral and you throttle it up about 1000 RPM you'll notice it really gets smooth. It should act no different when it is in forward or reverse gear if everything is in the proper alignment. You may have to ajust or shim the motor mounts to attain alignment to the couplings with a feeler gauge. I usually use a dial indicator but a feeler gauge will work fine I recommend 25.000 most of the time you need to use a hammer but never hit on the flange of either coupling. The shaft coupling can be hit on the body that surrounds the shaft and hold it in place. The transmission output coupling needs no hammer just the nut to install. When I use a hammer I always use a sacrificial brass rod or a block of wood. After looking at the pictures if you follow this practice you'll probably never have another problem with it. As said earlier make the correct tool out of an old socket using a hand grinder, or do it at the machine shop preferably half inch drive and torque the nut to specifications also using some Loctite if you can get some.
looking at the shaft coupling itself you'll notice a ridge on the inside as a mating surface, that ridge fits inside the output shaft coupling and if it is damaged in any way which I can clearly see it is, it could've been the cause of the problem. The correct assembly and alignment will not only solve the problem but it will also solve the cause as long as your output shaft bearing is in good condition. CaptG

"First time customer, not sure what to expect. Birth/moving announcement was what I needed so went with Tiny Prints even though the cost was a little more than other vendors. TOTALLY worth it. Paper was thick and resolution was crisp. Even the envelopes that came with the cards were decent. I will buy my holiday cards from this company and future invites."
"Wow I was so impressed with my order, it actually exceeded my expectations! I couldn't be more happy with the announcements I ordered!! The paper quality is exellent and so is the design in general. I will definitely be using Tiny Prints for now on, they are reliable, professional and affordable!"
"Perfect announcement with hospitality/welcome pineapple motif. Colorful with quality print and design. Perfect for our summer move."
"We used these announcements for an elderly aunt who we had to move into assisted living. We wanted something cheerful and this fit the bill: so bright and happy! Since we were on a budget, I loved that you could "downgrade" to a straight edge and eliminate any extra costs; but I thought all of the edging options looked great. I also liked that the text was 100% customizable. These arrived faster than I expected and were the usual good quality card stock. I highly recommend."
"I am so happy I ordered this card!! It was of such high quality, so creative and beautiful! I had so many lovely comments from people who received it. The customer service was exceptional and I was updated with every aspect of this card from creating it to delivery. The only thing I would have changed is my envelope selection. I chose a envelope with a luster finish and it was difficult to write on. Next time I would choose a matte finish envelope. I can't wait to order again!! Great company and products!!"

The wind had eased up a little, so I told them I was tired and asked if one of them wanted to tack us back the remaining distance to the marina. They didn't know what tack meant, so I explained it, and then handed over the tiller and the mainsheet to Alishia. Sitting back for the first time during the sail, I immediately felt relaxed, and began to refresh myself with the same views of the water and the shoreline they had enjoyed while I was battling the elements.
And I thanked her and her friend. It must have been "tilleritis" or some other sailing phobia that made me think the best way for company on the boat to enjoy themselves was to have nothing to do but ride along as passengers. If I hadn't handed off the tiller and the mainsheet when I did, they might still have enjoyed themselves, but not as much. And I probably would have stepped back on shore wishing I'd put the whole thing off until conditions were calmer.
It's better all around to have crew members instead of passengers. Spending a little time instructing them on the workings of the boat for a particular task, and then mentoring them as they carry it out, pays terrific dividends. Once they feel comfortable with the step involved, you have a crew member instead of a passenger. And with luck and patience, you'll have a happy ship.

Hello all.
Kind of new here and I am in the process of building a Bossk suit. Thanks to a new found friend, I got the main body parts. I am looking for the yellow jumpsuit. I have read the forums that the original film suit was a High Altitude Windak High Pressure Suit from 1962 that I believe was used buy the Royal Air Force. I know.... Good luck trying to find one. :facepalm I have seen that some great costumes have a yellow suits. Any advice where I may find a yellow flight suit or how I can make one? Thanks.

text: I'm in need of some new arrows. Do you prefer ordering your arrows online or at your local shop? I usually buy from my local shop to help them out, but have not been completely happy with their fletching job. Is there an online dealer that you would recommend? I shot Easton ST Axis Nanos, so Im hoping the shop(s) you recommend carry them. Most do.

• North Carolina is 3-0 all-time against Davidson and 2-0 against the Wildcats in Chapel Hill.
• The Tar Heels and Wildcats have met just twice in the last 10 years - an 86-48 UNC win in 2005 and a 68-46 Tar Heel victory in 2002. Both of those meetings were the season opener for Carolina.
• Prior to 2002, the two schools had not met in women's basketball since Carolina's inaugural season of 1974-75. The Tar Heels were 80-31 road winners that season.
• The Tar Heels will look to post their 12th straight win in a season opener Friday afternoon.
• Carolina last lost its opener in 2000, when the Tar Heels fell to Buffalo, 95-89. That also marks the last time UNC did not play its opener in Chapel Hill.
• Carolina is 33-5 all-time in season openers, including a 22-4 mark under Sylvia Hatchell.
• UNC routed Gardner-Webb, 109-44, in the 2011-12 opener. The 109 points were the second-most by a Tar Heel team in a season opener since 1982-83, when Carolina started its season with a 114-50 victory at Appalachian State. UNC scored 110 in its 2010-11 opener against North Florida.

Hello everyone! Just a quick introduction... :)In mid-April, I installed my first two packages of bees. Our weather was cold (down to freezing some nights) after weeks of 70+ weather. Of course, I worried every night they were out there.As far as I can tell, they're all still alive though, now that the weather has shot back up into 80+F. It has been very rainy and very windy, so I haven't actually gotten a chance to pull frames out and see if my queens are laying eggs yet. My hives are a 30 minute drive away, on the farmland of my Father-In-Law's home. I have hopes in the future for harvesting enough honey that my husband can try making mead. And of course I have visions of homemade soap/lip balm/etc. as gifts for loved ones. But right now, I just want my hives to live! I'm trying to go by the "bees know what they're doing" mantra. I hope that they can survive no matter what I inadvertently do to them!I hope I can find the camaraderie and advice on this forum to make their lives better.
I live in Peoria, IL but my beehives live in Wyoming, IL

I'm in the stages of putting body filler on all my pieces and prepping them for paint when I realized that my cod piece and back armor has flattened out while the fiberglass was drying. This means that they do not fit anymore like they are supposed to. Is there a way to reshape them even with the fiberglass cured already or does this mean I have to re-make them?
The back curve from top to bottom is alright but from right to left is where it's worse. I'm thinking i could cut it down the middle and possibly put it back together how it should be.
The cod piece I have no idea on what to do.
Info: Scratch built armor made of cardboard->1 coat of fiberglass resin w/o fiberglass->1 coat of resin with fiberglass mat

At Uniplaces we make the process of booking an apartment as easy as possible for both tenant and landlord.
That's why we have our own team of professional photographers that verify our properties and pick our landlords carefully in order to save time on viewings: we think it's old-fashioned and time-consuming.
You can look at forty different apartments on our platform in the same amount of time that it takes to see a room.
The pictures you see here haven't been photoshopped, so they'll be really accurate.
If you've still got any doubts, we'll keep the money that you transfer us until 24h after your move-in date.
If something's not exactly what you saw online, we'll help you move somewhere else and return your money.
We can only give you the contact details of your landlord after your booking is accepted. But we can guarantee that Uniplaces chooses the landlords it works with very carefully.
Besides, we've had students whose favourite part was living with a local!
Landlords and host families can be great city guides, help you out with translations and even become your friends.
As soon as your booking is accepted, you're given the landlord's contact details. Then, you can discuss all details directly with them, such as when you'll be moving-in.
Students move in and out at different times, so your flatmates might change during your stay.
It's a great opportunity to make new friends!
We personally speak to students who we place in Uniplaces apartments and are sure we will find the right place for you as well!
At the bottom of the property page, you have a calendar where you can see the availability of that room/apartment, according to the landlord.
But if you're still unsure about that we're happy to help.
Tell us your move-in and move-out dates and we will double-check if the place is available for you!
There are two different types of deposits: the Holding and Security deposits.
By clicking on "Deposit" at the bottom of the offer page you will get more information about each type of deposit.
In general, the deposit is paid to cover for any potential damages that may occur during your period of stay or will be used as rent compensation in case you leave earlier than originally planned.
If no damages occur and you leave on the agreed move-out date, your deposit should be refunded by the landlord in a way you both agree on.

Since the weather has warmed up, my boys have been obsessed with skateboarding. They would live at the Tribeca Skatepark if they could. They are such cool dudes. Me on the other hand? I'm worried I taint the place with my purse and ponytail and water bottles and goofy smile because I can't hide how excited I am to be at a skatepark. In NYC. Omg. If my 16-year-old could see me now. She would be envious.
To avoid ruining it for everyone, I hide in the alcove that blocks the view of most of the park. It's shaded, which is good. Then there's the pipes and the loud West Side High Way and a fence and maybe another parent hiding from his kids too. Not so good. We looks like idiots as we talk about what else? Our kids.
My goal is stay out of the way and let the boys learn on their own and through observation. Nothing worse than a soccer mom like me coming along and nerding it up by taking videos and tons pictures and giving advice on something I know nothing about. Nothing worse at all.
This video is a perfect example of being boring at the moment, but give it ten years. I'll wish is was 10 minutes long. Also: Check out what the other skaters are wearing, especially that kid with the green stripe sweatpants. It's as if fashion doesn't play a role in skateboarding anymore. This makes me totally outrageous. What is the world coming to? ;)

LAKELAND, FL (August 1, 2013) – Fire Inspector, David Bivens resigned today prior to his scheduled Pre-Disciplinary Hearing. He was recommended for termination based on the Internal Investigation that involves sexual misconduct and a number of policy violations. The 23 year employee is no longer employed by the City of Lakeland effective today, August 1, 2013.
LPD's Office of Professional Standards (OPS) completed their review of all the relevant facts and evidence presented in the administrative investigation because Bivens possesses Police Standards which requires his investigation to be undertaken pursuant to the Police Officers' Bill of Rights. The OPS investigation included statements Bivens made under oath in conjunction with the State Attorney's related investigation.
Based upon the conclusions of the investigation, Bivens Chain of Command and Fire Chief Gary Ballard recommended that he be terminated for the following policy violations:
· Unethical conduct
· Conduct off duty that impacts the workplace
· Willful neglect of performance duties
· Falsification of employee work records
· Making false claims of sick leave
Bivens was scheduled for his Pre-Disciplinary Hearing this morning and he submitted his resignation prior to the scheduled time of that hearing.
Lakeland Fire Chief Gary Ballard said, "I am very sad and disappointed that any member of our Fire Department would conduct themselves in this manner. His (Bivens) individual actions should not be viewed in any way, shape or form as representative of the dedicated men and women of Lakeland Fire Department." Ballard added, "Conduct such as his will not be tolerated."
Bivens is 48 years old and made $70,937 per year as a Fire Inspector for the Lakeland Fire Department. For more information regarding current investigations and for updates, please visit www.lakelandgov.net.

Excellent post. Mostly good advice.
If the door is hot at all, or the hallway is smoke filled, and you have an easily accessible second way out, even if it is a window, use it. With the materials found in common household products being mostly plastic, read solid oil, the intensity of fire and fire spread is so rapid today that it may change so fast that you get caught and die attempting to escape. Hydrogen cyanide is a common combustion by-product and it lingers long after the fire has been extinguished, carbon monoxide is another. Both are incredibly toxic and deadly in the right quantities.
Flashover, the state of the fire spread where everything in a room is heated to its ignition temperature and they all burst in to flames simultaneously, is occurring much early than when homes had natural fiber interior finishings. Temperatures in a modern house fire easily exceed 1000 degrees F and temps over 1500 degree F are entirely realistic today.
I have to say, in my opinion, that the only way I would wrap myself in a blanket is if it were made of natural fibers, particularly wool. Synthetics melt and would just add to your misery from burns.
If you close your door, and no smoke is infiltrating the room, it probably would be okay to open your window to make it easier to be spotted and to breath. If you think you are going to pass out try not to position yourself right under the window sill. Remember those coming in to rescue you will be coming through that window to get you and if they have to move you before they come in it simply adds to your exposure time to heat and smoke. Be close to the window so you are easy to find, but not in the entry way.
Have a meeting place outside for your family to gather at so you can take a head count and know for sure who is out. Report this information to the first arriving fire truck officer. Believe me it makes a difference how we do things if we know everyone is out versus knowing someone is still inside. If someone is inside yet, firefighters and equipment primarily focus on the rescue attempt and suppressing the fire may be given less resources initially. If everyone is out then the resources all go to extinguishing the fire as rapidly as possible. If you can identify who is missing and then tell the fire officer their most likely location that can save a ton of time finding them.
Smoke detectors and Caron monoxide detectors do indeed wear out and we go on plenty of CO detectors sounding that are malfunctioning because the are worn out. Replacing them in a timely manner may just save your life.
I have a love/hate relationship with fore extinguishers and the reason is the instructions on everyone of them is wrong. the first instruction should say "CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT!" The number of fires every year that get out of hand because people wait to call the fire department is simply unacceptable. Call first, or get some one else to call while you use the extinguisher. When i teach non-firefighters how to use extinguishers I always tell them this: 1) If the extinguisher is having no effect on the fire it is time to leave, 2) If you are having difficulty breathing it is time to leave, 3) If you are having trouble seeing it is time to leave. You are not expected to die using a fire extinguisher.
Good advice on the using the back of your hand. We add in the fire training world that there is always the possibility that wiring overhead had fallen on the door knob on the other side and electrified the door knob. Using the back of your hand the natural muscle reaction is for the hand to close and pull away, if you use your palm and your hand closes you may be stuck to the door knob.
My last addition would be this, if you live in the rural have the fire chief come out and do a walk around with you on your property. he doesn't have to go into any buildings but the look around to see if there is room for fire apparatus to maneuver and work, if there is an alternative water supply like a pond or river, trees, terrain and anything else pertinent may make the difference in saving your home or out buildings in case of fire.
Excellent post BlackBlade. I hope you don't mind my additional comments from a firefighter's perspective.

text: I left the dome lights on in my truck a few weeks ago, and it was completely dead (I usually only drive my truck 1 or 2 times a week). Luckily, I thought, I was parked on a hill and had plenty of room to roll start it. I turned the ignition on and had plenty of speed to turn the engine in 3rd gear, but it wouldn't start. I had a long hill so I tried twice, and again, the engine turned, but no spark, so I eventually had to jump it. I tried to roll start it today (with a full battery), and when I engaged the clutch, my Security light came on the warning center thing. Is there supposed to be a security sensor that doesn't allow you to roll start on a 2000 Sierra 1500 or do I have a bad sensor? Thanks
