i just bought an 86 reinell 170 with an omc cobra i/o and was wondering what the difference is between omc, mercruiser, volvo? do they still make omc engines. i asked a couple of shops around where i live and they said that they dont even work on them anymore, why is that? is an omc a bad engine?
the lights on my trailer do not come on when my driving lights are on at nights. but when i push on the brake the brake lights work? i dont know what to replace or how to check each connection.
