I have a 350 chevy /OMC Stringer. I put the boat in the shop to have the impeller replaced and the next trip out I noticed water in my bilge. I accumulate around 3 to 5 agllons in a 6 hour trip.
I asked the shop if there was any likelyhood that something may have been overlooked. The old guy...
I have a 37 year old Slickcraft SS235 V-hull. The floor, transom and motor well are all solid. The fuel tank is centered on the floor and runs from the motor box forward to the well at the helm. All this material (side walls) appear solid except for the forward 12" on one side (starboard) and...
I have an 02 Suburban that keeps blowing TLR/parking lamp fuses.
When hooking up my trailer lights I noticed I had no running/tail lights. I did the usual check under the wiring receptacle as this was a nasty looking dealer install on the towing package. I find everything working except running...
Engine is 350 cid chevy. The manual calls for 8deg before TDC however when I put on the timing light my marks are way over to say the eleven o'clock position and even 10deg. will stall out. The motor was installed prior to purchase. The old motor was a 307 I believe. I know there are several...
I'm having intermittant starting issues. Pisser is pissing normal, doesn't seem to be running hot or anything. occaisionally I'll get a faint click but no start. I run this boat in sub zero ambient temps in 30 to 35 degree water so a breakdown could be a real problem.
Any thoughts?

Yesterday I was running from hole to hole on the river when on a couple starts I started having an issue re-starting the motor. Turned the key only to hear a faint click. After a few minutes it would start up but this is concerning being an intermittant problem and secondly I run...
I accidentally ran my 2 stroke 20 hp kicker for about 5 to 7 seconds without water. Seems weird to hear but yes, I was tilting my O/B forward with the switch left on and I bumped the start switch. Normally it takes a second or two to start but I had just had it running and it fired up and ran a...
I have a 80 gallon fuel tank with rust in it. I bought the boat and the guy said he left it empty to keep fuel from going bad as he bought a new boat and never used the old one much. I'm curious if any one has any suggestions on removing the rust from the tank. Tank can be removed from the boat.
took my boat out this morning for a fishing day. Ran out about 4 miles or so then throttled down for a troll and started laying lines. About 5 min into running at 800 rpm she dies. I quickly started her up again and she ran for another five before dying again and the she wouldnt start at all...
