Tonight I was bored and decided to take a borescope to look inside a 3,0 Mercruiser block. This engine ran great but it had water in the oil. I took the engine apart and found no cracks on the outside or no evidence of head gasket leak. I figured I would look on the inside and posted it online...
I purchased a new coupler for my 4.3 engine (18643A5). When I put it on and ground ran the engine, I noticed the grease tube on the coupler was way off center. I carefully checked the run-out on the coupler (right outside the splines) and it was perfect but the grease tube was off almost .250" ...

I did a search and only found two posts on the subject but the links to the files don't work anymore.
The Chieftain I just bought has an anchor mounted on the roof. I don't like this idea because you have to walk up on the bow everytime you want to deploy or retrieve the anchor.
What are you...
Well I'm sitting in the terminal at Philly airport waiting for my flight home drinking the best cup of D-D coffee I've ever had & oh yea I'm the proud new owner of a 1969 Starcraft Chieftain. I'm picking it up next Thursday. I'll post a couple of pics and more details when I get home. I feel...

I got a phone call from my uncle last month asking if I wanted a boat. When I asked him what kind it was He just said "a big one" I told him that I would be up his way in a month and have a look. Well when I showed up I wasnt expecting this.
