I run with mal and sab both, and have not had a problem to date. I do a full systems check shortly after I clear the harbor, ie run engine check up to fland spped, check tha both parascopes and the TDC operate. fire the deck gun and AA gun. submerge as soon as I get to 100 meter line, check batteries speeds. If I find a malfunction I will either return to port if operating out of France, or dock at K-land if coming out of Kiel ar W-haven for repairs. I I think the propbelm is not too serious, I continue to run the partol. So far I have had parascope malfunction, engine malfunction (I could not use Flank speed) TDC malfunctions, and Torpedo tube door malfunction. I am sure there are others that I have not noticed or have not yet occurred.
Drive on with a vengance!
