    Yeah every now and then you hear of something that might actually improve things ( as opposed to just making a difference ). My Dad swears that his car went better after a shot of injector cleaner :LOL::LOL: funny as #uck me and my younger bro .....we tipped this snake oil into his engine ...

    Liqui Moly ceratec engine oil additive any good?

    Really , if all it took was a wee ( cost effective ) dram of sommat to make oil soooooo much better manufacturers would be already putting it in their oil and shouting about the benefits. I might put a bit of zinc into my oil but the stuff I buy already has it. I did once use Morleys oil...

    Making a 16' Aluminum fish boat TOO LIGHT.

    Gotta take care of your nuts too . To much bouncing around , particularly in boxers is not good . Standing at the helm , feet 18"apart , every time the boat bottoms out gravity gives them a wee tug . An hour or so of that is plenty .

    What should I offer on this outboard?

    Does it go ? Can you water test or even run it in a tub . I think that if your used to less technical engines (like me ) I d stick with what you know I am no expert on e tech motors but I have heard enough to make me leary specially if they are not your particular can of worms .😁

    99 Volvo 5.0GL

    Sounds like a power supply issue , possibly a high resistance joint common to both the ignition coil and trim motor.

    I think one of the issues is that vegemite 1st timers tend to put way to much on ....like a pea sized blob of vegemite will easily do one slice of toast, but yeah.
