    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    Anyone have any luck with these style T connectors? I know I can rig up a y connection but I don’t like the heat shrink method. It allows moisture in.

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    Also, my fuse panel supply, if the total of all fuses should every item be drawing full amps equals around 38amps, should I round up to 50amps for future upgrades or just to be on the super safe side? Means going to 4ga from 8ga cable which seems nuts. Both do actually. Does this sound like...

    A great way to clean oxidized aluminum is to use bristle discs. They don’t remove aluminum.

    Constant high pitch alarm?

    I just tried running a new to me 1990 Johnson 70 today. I let it warm up at the dock and then started out on the lake.
