I've been fixing up a 65 chris craft corsair fiberglass and I noticed water dripping from a damaged (6"x1" thru the gelcoat and to the fiberglas, no deeper) portion of the hull just ahead of the transom. <br />The only point I could discover where water could enter between the deck and the hull...
While working on the motor I noticed that the fitting directly under the carburator is snapped off. The hose leads to a fitting at the top of the engine on the right side. Try as I might I can't get the fitting out, besides that it seems like something is blocking it because I can't get a wire...
I have an old aluminum prop (mid-60's I thnk) off of a 140 HP O/D Eaton and no one I've talked to knows what the numbers on the prop mean. On the hub below the name Michigan is the #SMC942 and bteween the blades are the #'s 288W and 447M. I've e-mailed Michigan Prop early last week and I...
I have a 65 chris craft with an Eaton outdrive that calls for 90 weight gear lube (Eaton or Merc part# L100) with chlorine, sulphur and lead additives. The owners manual is pretty insistant on that product, needless to say finding that is out of the question. So my question is, what gear lube...
The engine in this boat (65 chris craft fibreglas 17'5) is a ford 289 block and heads so I shouldnt have too much problem finding parts for it but the outdrive is another question. No luck at auto parts stores, no suprise there, and the couple of marinas I tried I had little luck they referred...

I just bought this boat pretty much sight unseen and i'll be picking it up tomorrow and i thought i'd ask tonight if anyone out there would know what engine would be in the boat. It's a 16/18 ft fiberglass runabout with the marking "Interceptor" 140 hp. Theres no name on the engine but its...
I just "inherited" an old cadillac 16 ft and 2 evinrude 33 hp engines, 1 a hand start and the other an electric start. The 33's haven't run in years (dont know much history on them) so I'm looking for suggestions on my next step. Both turn over very hard with th plugs in, a lot easier w/o...
