    Pet surgery cost😮

    Poor guy just wants to run I’m sure. It amazing how resilient animals are. Kinda of like me as a kid. I didn’t care about pain I just wanted to be doing something. Those days are long gone. I broke a couple toes years ago and didn’t do anything about. A year later I ended up having them broken...

    1983 35hp siezed after sitting for 5 years.

    This is a strange one for sure. I have never seen an over sized piston that wasn’t marked but I’m sure they are out there. Maybe it was rebuilt oversized pistons were driven home and she never ran again. You may never know. Keep us posted on the investigation.

    Being in good or at least better shape will make the recovery so much faster and easier. Get your legs muscles as strong as you can and it will make a world of difference. Every time I have to have something done I will works that muscle group as hard as I can and I usually surprise the...

    I have seen several things on CL that have been there for a very long time and the price keeps dropping but it’s still not where they need to be to off load. Some learn the hard way.

    I hear ya on the weather. All my joint have gone to hell. I have been on the OR table 17 times now. 5 times for my back alone. The rest is everything else from shoulders to feet. I have been putting off a double knee replacement for a few years now but my days are numbered. Going to have...

    Water pump

    Pumps are not self priming and the water level needs to be well above the pump. 6” to 8 “

    What type of gas tank for '79 Johnson 35hp?

    I would take a good metal tank over the new plastic tanks any day. The older medal tanks in my area go for big bucks. Usually around $150 but they are so nice and were made very well.

    Pet surgery cost😮

    The things we do for our pets. They are family after all. I dropped 6k on one for a single surgery to remove some cancer and she only made it for another year. I sore I would never do it again. As of yesterday I have 7k into my currant pup in the last 2 years alone. 😂

    Fuel filter

    I was out boating solo when I was 10. I put my poor mother though hell looking back. My daughter is a pilot and started flying at 13. I remember very clearly when she took her first solo flight at 14. I was terrified. She had her pilots license before her drivers licenses so now I have...

    Fuel filter

    I had one of those glass filters break on me once some time ago. 40 some odd years now that I’m thinking about it. Anyway I had to redo the hose to get home which was not a big deal but it happened during a storm and I was blown up onto the flats. It was only a 12’ boat so walking off the flats...

    1972 25hp evinrude water over flow issue

    That could very well be the cause. Always use a new head gasket. Once they are compressed they don’t alway seal properly again.

    1972 25hp evinrude water over flow issue

    That’s the water cooled model. 😂 Wet vac it out as it’s running and try to locate the leak. Look around the water jacket and the head. Best

    What do these knobs do?

    This is true but with that nut only catching a couple threads I would agree it’s in the sketchy category 😂

    Have you ever seen this?

    I’m still leaning towards intermittent spark and that’s what I would be looking for to either rule out or confirm but that’s just me. Running in gear in a barrel will not give you any useful results as your going to get cavitation. The carb sucking in exhaust gases doesn’t help either which is...
