    U-joint bellows ring

    I used a quart paint can filled with old drive oil to set the ring. It fits into the bore like a piston in a cylinder. I held a 2x6 block of wood on the end of the can and gave it a couple of good licks with a hammer. Be aware I have only done this once but it worked well for me..

    Method to repair damaged crank/ flywheel key?

    Since you said red neck repair, de-grease it real good and then put some red locktite on the shaft when you put it back together. You may not ever get it off again so be sure all is good..

    1995 Searay 5.7 GM winterizing mods..

    Well the last thing I want is for a plug to break off in the block, it was quite a chore getting the old drain valves out of the block, so I'll try to find the stainless or brass wing style and put some anti seize on them each year. Best I can tell the inlet hose going to the steering cooler...
