    Fouled Spark Plugs

    Agreed. Whenever you start it, take it out for a cruise. Got to let it warm properly, can't do that idling.

    Swarm

    Sounds like an entire bee hive looking for a new home. (There are more different types of bee species than you can imagine.) I see/hear them every year and hear more of them moving around in dryer years. It is a dry year for us and noticed 7 different types of bees in just one Palo Verde tree...

    Boat mooring in rocky areas (aluminum boat)

    I never beach my boat, but it takes a lot of work and I have to get wet so I only do it in the summer time. A minimum of 3 anchors for fair weather and 6 if a monsoon goes through. There are six lines in the picture below.

    Who installed the motor ? If you did do you feel lucky ?

    Neutral Over speed Fault Code ?

    Is it safe to assume that when looking at the motor the shift plate is on the top left back side of the engine ? I would post a picture, but won't be near the boat until this weekend.

    Neutral Over speed Fault Code ?

    We have a 2005 265 SSI with a Mercruiser 496 Mag and were out cruising at 3200rpm like we do every weekend in the summer and the engine guardian cut the power and beeped once. I immediately put it in neutral and connected the DDT and it showed "Neutral Overspeed" in fault history, but it was...
