    Have a live mouse inside a interior wall. No insulation.

    Almost , it was under one layer of leather and while it was soft I couldnt feel it but once the thing dried out and gone crispy I felt it . Where have you been watching Brokenwood ? :):)

    Does anyone know what this plug is called ??

    Or its a grommet that fits in an outboard driveshaft housing :). To me a grommet has a hole in it .... like for getting a wiring harness thru a bulkhead .

    Evinrude or Suzuki

    Does / has this actually happened ? dont get me wrong :) I get the feeling you have a bit of experience and Im just curious as to wether this is a common issue with this engine when peeps give the prop a decent whack , Sounds outrageous , youd have to think its deliberate way of effecting...

    Does anyone know what this plug is called ??

    Most common name is a body plug if its on a car ( they have heaps of them ) but I dunno what the outboard peeps would call it . You should be able to get one from an auto parts shop for a couple of bucks .:)

    Does Yamaha flush port/hose, flush 100% of motor?

    Yeah but some t/stats have a small bypass figured in there somehow and the t/stat is pretty much the last thing the water gets to . The t/stat doesnt make a perfect seal and will leak enough to purge any air out as the water gets pushed up thru the exhaust cover and the block and head...

    Does Yamaha flush port/hose, flush 100% of motor?

    Spinning reels

    Each to their own I guess . I use 3 gram lures ( various types ) with either a soft bait clip or a small snap swivel on my ultralite set up.
