    Volvo duo prop locking nut identification

    First thing I would do is get rid of that locking nut and put on a regular nut.

    I don't have a problem with In-N-Out burger putting bible verses on their packaging nor do I have a problem with players putting "Stop Hate" on the back of their helmets.

    It's just a phrase on the back of their helmet! Get over it...or don't watch. It's a private company doing what private companies are allowed to do.

    Volvo penta 5.0 knocking sound

    Possibly. When was the last time you pulled the drive? Even if it wasn't it and it is the engine, the drive needs to come off anyway to pull the engine

    Volvo penta 5.0 knocking sound

    May also want to pull the drive and run it for a few seconds to make sure its not from the coupler or drive area.

    2005 VP 5.0Gxi 2500-3000rpm max. Low pressure Pump 0 psi

    Personally, if it was me, I would just spring for a whole new assembly. I know they are ridiculously expensive but you will have a complete brand new unit.

    Ease of towing larger boat

His trailer weighs close to 7000# but he seems to think he can tow it safely since its at the max towing rating. I have tried to explain to him that his 1000# payload...

    Ease of towing larger boat

    I agree with 95% of what you said. The reality is that boat trailers don't need anywhere close to 15% like a travel trailer does. A boat trailer is stable at between 7% and 10%. My 6500# boat has a tongue weight of a little more than 600# with no fuel measured with a Sherline scale.

    Bearing Buddies
