    Partially damaged spark plug hole on 115 optimax

    Something like this might solve the problem. You'd have to get one with the right threads. https://www.lislecorp.com/specialty-tools/limited-access-spark-plug-chaser

    Wellcraft or Robalo or Black Fin or BW for CC?

    If you will be using it for mostly cruising why are you going for a CC?

    Changing props

    Put it in forward gear to remove prop and reverse to install (or maybe it's the opposite). Best if you have spare hardware in case you drop parts in deeper water. If the water is not calm it's a bit trickier as the boat moves. I've done it leaning off the back of the boat. Depends on the boat...

    Glastron SX 175 Gas Smell

    You should always be running your blower at idle anyway.

    Winter Prep for So Cal

    If it's for a few months tops, and get yearly maintenance done, and don't have to worry about freezing I'd make sure the battery was charged and that's it.

    2015 Dodge Grand caravan SE trailer wires installation failed

    If wired properly the ball shouldn't have anything to do with grounding. That might be the case if the trailer isn't wired correctly. There should be a ground from the vehicle harness connector that attaches to the ground on the trailer harness connector. When I rewire a trailer I don't even...

    I think CR4HSB would be a step hotter.

    Help IDing Trailer

    With that setup and without the side guides as Scott suggested it will be difficult to keep centered if you go in too deep. As you discovered it will float side to side. Your idea of just deep enough to get the bow on the back roller is a good start.

    Can you use 2 stoke oil in a prestolite, trim pump?

    No, don't do that. Check to see what colour it is in case someone put ATF in.

    oil leak on 3.0

    How did you remove the retaining nut, do have the tool?

    oil leak on 3.0

    If it's oil and not grease then you need to pressure test the drive. You might need a new yoke seal and maybe the yoke as well it it's worn.

    ATV and moving boat around on stone

    Did the same with a 12hp for years.

    Sunrunner 320 classic (1990)

    Welcome. Your best bet is to get genuine volvo manuals for the motors and drives. There won't be a manual for the boat. You will have to google for info on some of the systems in the boat. Or you can ask questions here as well.

    Main engine for trolling

    Sorry I don't have an answer for you but hopefully someone will come by with a good answer. I'm not sure why your engine builder would say not to let it idle.

    3.0 timing

    Then it's a 3.0L and your serial number 0D445400 is probably correct. Manual 13 part no. 90-816-462

    3.0 timing

    If that serial number applies to that motor then you need manual 13. That series came with points or electronic ignition. Did you look for a number stamped by the distributor?
  20. Alumarine

    3.0 timing

    That number isn't quite right. There should be a serial number plate with something like 0C856451 or 7 numerals If that's missing, then the engine code is stamped on the block by the distributor.
