So my wife has recently been doing a babysitter share with another couple we met. The wife will come to our house while we go out and my wife goes there when they go out. We've done this probably three times and our daughter has been around their dog at least four times. On Saturday night my...
We bought our house about 6 months ago and the basement had just been recently renovated and finished. They walled off the area and put a door on it. The room has a rough in for a toilet and sink. It also shares the furnace, water heater and sump. To give an idea if your standing at the door...
I have a house built in 1992 and the stairs going up to the bedroom squeak like crazy. I read the best way to fix is from the back side but I'd have to tear out a finished wall/ceiling on the backside to do that. Anyone know if it's reasonable to just pull up the carpet and put in a few screws...
So my wife has a 1999 lexus rx300 Suv, the first year of them and mostly Toyota parts. For the last 6 months we've been putting off an issue we can't continue to ignore. Sometimes when she goes out to leave for work she'll try and start the car and it will just click when she turns the key...
I just sold my 21' 1996 Marada open bow w/ 5.0 V8. I mainly used it for wakeboarding and tubing. Was time to go and sold it. I'm likely going to wait until Spring to purchase another one but want to start my research now and could use some help. I'm looking for around 2001 to 2007 range...
I have a 1996 Marada 21' open bow with 5.0 V8. I really like the boat and the wake but I recently bought an HOA house and the boat is just a touch too long to fit in the garage and am having to pay for storage now, as well have a second baby on the way so I'm debating on selling it now while in...
so I bought a Sears Craftsmen lawnmower last year, don't remember model name, but figured it was a nice quality brand. Spent about $350 on it. Has the power front wheels on it and about 6.75 lbs of torque advertised on the engine. Worked great last season but would bog down a little too easy...
I have a 96 Marada 21' open bow I/O with 5.0 V8. I recently got a leak that I can't find the source of but know its taking on more water than I'm comfortable with. I have the boat on a trailer now and yesterday I tried putting the plug in, have the front of the boat raised, and used a hose to...
I have a 1996 Marada 21' open bow I/O with 5.0 V8, think around 220 hp - not fuel injected. Think I have a 19 pitch prop. I wasn't fully floored but plenty of power going and my speedo said right around 25 mph and 3400 rpm's. I do like the wake the boat is giving me for wakeboarding and I...
Bought a 1996 21' open Bow marada i/o last year. Has a snap on cover for the bow and then a cover that goes along the windshield all the way back to the engine covers. Every time it rains it gets soaking wet inside because the water proofing had long worn out. Went and bought 2 cans of scotch...
after a lousy day on the water the other day I was putting my boat back on the side of the house. I lowered the wheel stand and started cranking it up to get it off my hitch. As I was turning it suddenly started to spin fast and obviously broke. I took the cover off and there is a little...
So I spent the last week and a half getting it ready for the season and did the last of what needed to be done. I was having some trouble getting it started initially and my mechanic buddy helped me get it started. We think it was the main engine circuit breaker but I'm not completely sure...
I have a 96 Marada 21' open bow. Pretty standard setup with the seating in the back area, driver, passenger and a bench across the back. The driver seat is just barely above the floor and when we trim it up it gets a little hard to see and end up having to sit on a leg or sit up against the...
I have a 96 Marada 21' open bow with a 5.0 V8. The prop on it states 48-16544-19. I'm looking for a spare and found a guy who is willing to do a trade for some stuff I have. He isn't sure if it'll fit my boat but his says: 48-30394-13. Not sure why he doesn't have more info, maybe he got it...
I've been looking around for a cheap spare prop for emergencies and found one for sale. Guy said he can't find any typing on it to confirm size or pitch but picture looks pretty close to what I need. Said it was from a Maxim 88. I have a 1996 Marada i/o with 5.0 V8 and am currently running a 19...
