    salt water in single cylinder

    Salt is bad enough. Add in INDUSTRIAL chemical dumping. Like Paper Mills or battery recyclers ? Eat metals alive quickly. A large sewage plant can dump some large amounts at night. Why are my underwater metal parts so PITTED ? Then add in dangerous 120 vac leakage currents from power...

    Move this to correct section. Who is still running with no fuel filter ? Why not ?

    I have found a decent CLEAR filter does wonders to prevent erratic problems. Caught a watery load of gas. And a few bits of black rubber hose. Changed the squeeze bulb as soon as it started taking a EXTRA squeeze to get hard.

    2017 19' Chaparral H2O leans right

    I remember the NEW LIGHTWEIGHT H2O being praised by Chaparral. My 2002 SS 186 weighs 3800 # Very difficult to get it leaning with 200 pound people. Do post # 13. Or add rock bags under some seats.

    You might be very sorry when a electronic system has a problem. Points only 2 parts to change and adjust. Buy a few spare hold down screws if you drop small parts.

    2006 Volvo out drive thumping

    Get a outboard motor if you want to trim the drive up. When in shallow water. They do not have those troublesome U Joints. My Mercruiser 2002 never had a inspection or problem with drive joints

    On crank no fuel to throttle body mercruiser 305 EFI

    Many car and some EFI controlled engines have a very short ....Purging Period .....During the instant the starter is energized. About 1/2 second the engine sucks any loose fuel up, laying on or around the engine parts. To prevent back fires taking place.
