Anyone that has repowered their T37 and knows where the old Westerbeke went, please share. I stripped a banjo bolt from the injector return line and they're saying that it will be 4-6 weeks to get it because Westerbeke doesn't have them. So I'm looking for an alternate source.

It's the Westerbeke 11935, and there's one on top of every injector. W40 has the same bolt. I imagine that many Westerbekes share that part so if you know where there is a decommissioned Westerbeke, let me know. One of the yard guys is going to check his Westerbeke graveyard today but I wanted to put out feelers. It's June and I'm still on the dry!
Frustrating

you may be able to find one at a local injector repair shop...I did.

You might try Torrensen Marine in Muskegon Mi. They are authorized dealers for Westerbeke.

They rebuild engines and I would venture a guess that they may have one or have an idea as to where you can get one if they don't have it......

Much thanks to jbarnes11 (Jeff) who turned me on to his marina in OH. They cleaned out their shed of decommissioned engines, but they had the Westerbeke part on the shelf! Two of them in fact. My yard pulled a used one and gave it to me, but it was longer with a different thread pattern. Jeff's people in OH sen the part and it was perfect.

Thanks again Jeff!

No sweat. They have always had what I needed.

Enjoy the summer!
