    6.5 turbo diesel

    I'm just curious to know if anyone is using or has used a GM 6.5 turbo diesel, or even a 6.2 n/a as a marine engine. I recently bought a 25' Starcraft Chieftain that has an I-6 mercruiser and just thinking of different options on how to repower it. It would seem (the 6.5) would make decent power...

    How much boat can a pick up haul?

    The truck: a 1994 F-250 turbo diesel 4x4 The boat: a 1976ish 33' Chris Craft Coho. From Hollands landing, Ontario Canada to Vancouver Island. From the guys who have towed boats this size with a pick up... is it doable?

    Just my luck...

    ...today I found the flat screwdriver that had disappeared about 2 years ago. It would seem the last time I used it was while working on my dad's dakota. It was wedged between the frame and the lower rad hose, where it rubbed a hole in the rad hose that I just changed out about 2 years ago...

    A little miracle

    One of my Chihuahuas had 4 pups 2 nights ago but one is to weak to feed himself. My wife has been up for 2 days now feeding him a drop at a time. He's moving around more than he was yesterday but he's far from being out of the woods yet. I have 5 Chihuahuas, 2 males and 3 females and when ever...
