Westerbeke on a 3200 Open
#5
(06-08-2016, 11:55 AM)Silver Rush Wrote: My gen set was hard to keep running, had to hold the start button but it would eventually stay running turned out to be a failing ballast resistor.
I also could not find points but found a blog on google that had P/Ns for a pointless retrofit kit. Access is very poor on my 31 open and the gen set needed to come out to replace the points. good luck 

Silver Rush - Thanks for replying.
Hope I don't have to pull the unit. If so, it may be a bit more than I am prepared to tackle which means having the boat yard manage it at the end of season haul out. $$$
Where is the ballast resistor located on your unit?
