    What does this marking mean on this new to me outdrive?

    If I'm not mistaken those gears might be marked so you identify the ratio. If not, you can count the teeth.

    EZ lube hubs and cold water

    Welcome. I've never had trouble. Did the grease show signs of water penetration? It would have looked milky if so.

    This is what the alternator would look like if yours has been converted. It's the silver object on the left. It might be higher than that. Picture from breezeworks site.

    How to fix trolling motor cable on CC boat.

    Alumarine, there is some slack by the batteries but Its real difficult to reach back there with 2 batteries in the way. I did try pushing it once and gave up. The wire didn't move any. As for the fish tape.....I could do that on the black wire but not the red. I can't see the red one after...

    How to fix trolling motor cable on CC boat.

    Is there enough slack at the other end so you could push the red wire so you can get at where the butt connector was? Or, if possible, disconnect the wires at the console and attach a fish tape to them. Then pull the cables out at the receptacle end till you can get at the red wire, fix or...

    Fiber Optic Connector Width for Drill Size

    Finally remembered to get back with info on this. Install went well. Took about 1.5 hours. Guy ran a fibre cable from the pole in my lane to the house and terminated it in a wall mount box. The SC/APC connector ends for the fibre extension cable that runs from the termination box to the modem...

    Fiber Optic Connector Width for Drill Size

    That's a good idea and I already tried that. The "contractor" is Bell. Try finding the right person there. I called tech support and the guy did what I did. Started googling. Anyway, I did talk to a tech in my lane. We'll see what happens.

    Fiber Optic Connector Width for Drill Size

    Saw an installer working up a pole down the lane from me so asked him. He said about the same size as an RJ45 connector. I know a 9/16" hole works for the snag free RJ45's so I'll try it. I guess I'll know for sure on Friday!

    Fiber Optic Connector Width for Drill Size

    The modem I'm getting has a fiber input and 4 gigabit ethernet ports as well as wifi 6. If I mount it in the basement I'll need an access point to get wifi to the 2nd floor. If they run the fiber to the main floor I don't think I'll need an access point.

    Fiber Optic Connector Width for Drill Size

    Later this week I'm getting fiber installed to my house for internet. To save time for the installer and myself I want to pre drill the holes in my floors where I think I may want the cable at some point. I know it uses an SC connector and I believe it's green if that means anything. Does anyone...
