    Fuel cell project gone bad

    Sorry, was thinking about Merc Could put a HP inline filter like the ones used on the 525, but would need to flare some new lines. Otherwise use it and hope it doesn't flake anymore. The O ring should be good enough to seal, it's on the low pressure side. The HP side connects direct to the...

    Electric Cars or Trucks

    Current Bats are said to last longer before needing replaced if slow charged. Wonder where Bats get recycled, currently I haven't found a place that specifically takes them, only places that you can drop your small ones off like Lowes. Regular Bats are paying 0.25 per pound

    '02 Mercruiser 5.0 MPI - Oil pressure switch location?

    A few things can cause it and there is a power reduction mode (limp) but when this happens normally there alarm sounds. Can check fuel pressure at the rail.
