2012年3月26日 · Or you can do it Quik's way... which is probably the way every marine personal does it for real. It's a rod holder, so you got plenty of slop on the edges to catch any mishaps. IMO, use 5200 on the bare surfaces of the hole to seal the moisture, as well of the screws/bolts. That is proably more important than the hole.

2014年4月15日 · As of now I’m sure I have the carb and spacer sealed well but not confident in the seal 100%. Going to use starter spray tonight and see what happens. Then tomorrow Ill put the new gasket on and try again. I have not screwed in the idle screws since I doubled up the base plate gasket. Going to try that tonight as well.

2017年3月17日 · I need to order new gas shocks since I was almost decapitated tonight after leaning against one which caused the seal to blow out. Does anyone know the weight rating i need for the shocks???

2015年3月18日 · We had a shaft seal cutting tool where I worked before retiring. It was basically an arm with a razor blade on a cutting board, but it made the cut at 45 degrees and did a really nice cut.

2008年1月16日 · I think it's similar to the stock market "jitters" lately. When the going gets tough everybody wants to "bail-out"! Wonder how "blow-boat" sales are doing?

2009年6月11日 · not to mention has anyone taken into account the extra stress mounting something that adds more drag to the trim tabs will do to the trim tab system itself. They aren't designed to do that. Do it right, and do it once. I can understand that if you are cheap and don't want to buy a through hull, I get it, I just went that same route myself for the season, but to go to all the effort of ...

2012年11月16日 · So removing the screws was easy. Only about half of the deck plate screws still "bite" the deck flange below. Filling with 5200 or epoxy and re-drilling/setting those holes is part 2 of this project. With the covers off, the tanks looked surprisingly good--to my untrained, amateur eye. Filthy dirty.

2014年3月4日 · For high-speed vessels it is required that a water supply be plumbed to the PSS for the purpose of cooling and lubricating the seal faces (i.e., at over approximately 12 knots of speed a vacuum is created in the stern tube and water is drawn away from the PSS resulting in a loss of cooling water that may cause the carbon to over heat).

2003年1月27日 · rejoice normal member in standard member. 1. tranny noise My velvet drive 1/1 tranny makes a racket when in gear at idle speed (650 rpm) but it quiets down when you reach about 850 rpm's and it runs fine, is this normal? Second question are the port and starboard fuel tanks identical...

2004年7月28日 · Most of you won't have a problem with this, but I'm posting it, anyway. On Shamrocks with a center console and at least some Mercruiser installations, changing the oil is absolutely no fun at all. Most of the job is like everyone else does, but getting the oil back in …
