    Merc I/o Winterize issue

    I have an open cooling system on mine. That I use a Rule circulating pump along with my muffs. That until my thermostat opens up it will not push the antifreeze into the engine. Don't know if this sheds any light on your issue or not.

    Winter cover

    I have always put mine on stands to keep the weight off the tires for over the winter storage. My package is about 6200 lbs. Don't know if it helps or not with preserving the longevity of the tires or not. I just feel better about it. Glad she fits, inside storage is always the best. Plus you...

    Fuel gauge

    How to clean boat's bottom to end the season?

    I have an E-Z Loader with rollers and I have always trailered. Back in the late 60's I had a 15 ft Mark Twain with bunks, that I also trailered. So with bottom paint, I never had to wash the bottom. My question is, what if you did not put the trailer in as deep as you normally do to retrieve...

    Fuel gauge

    Next year my girl will turn 40 and I will have had 33 of them, with 2000 hrs. and still going strong. When I got her she had a bad fuel gauge, so I replaced it. A known factor back then, that gauges were not that good. So like SST and Iggy, I started to do the math with gals per hr. Then you...

    How to clean boat's bottom to end the season?

    Sorry about that, (old eyes). I can only tell you what works for me to expose my total bottom.The very back of my keel is flat and is not rounded or V pointed. They called it a planning plate. So I get a large thick block of wood and a floor jack and raise it from there with it still attached to...

    Wingnut

    Maybe the caretakers of the site retired and there was no one that wanted to take over responsibility. I'm sure that Doc can tell you what it cost to run a site that does not generate any outside revenue, along with the time spent to keep it clean. Look at what was happening to the Chap site...

    Fuel Vapor smell

    Can you see the fill hose, can you trace it to the tank? Also can you see and trace the vent hose? If that all looks good, then the next thing that I would do, is to pressurize the tank. Somewhere under the deck you have the odor of raw gas or raw gas itself. If you and your friend's boats are...

    Fuel Vapor smell

    Ok, see if you have a drain in the floor of the cabin. If you do smell the drain to see if the odor is stronger. Get a wet towel and put it over the drain and keep it there and keep it wet. Air it out the cabin then close it up to see if the odor comes back. Is the odor there all the time, or...

    Fuel Vapor smell

    Trust me, I talk from experience, you have a situation that needs to be looked at. Mine was the fill hose to the tank deteriorated and was like a wet sponge. Close things up there was an odor, open things up odor disappeared. Found it by pressurizing the fuel tank. It could be something very...
