    '96 lund tyee 1850 floor rebuild and foam replacement.

    i got it to replace the tyee. it’s surprising how much bigger it is. i always thought the tyee was a big boat. for around here anyway. the baron makes it seem like a little tinner.

    '96 lund tyee 1850 floor rebuild and foam replacement.

    i reused the old rubber strip. it was in great shape believe it or not. i know great lakes skipper sells some windshield install kits. i have one for my baron that i haven’t installed yet. i’ll get a better look at what it looks like new and see if i have any ideas

    still not tested, but put everything in place to see what it looks like. pretty happy so far. still have to straighten the windshield hinge, and install the boarding ladder.

    '96 lund tyee 1850 floor rebuild and foam replacement.

    ready to run with water now to check for any leaks before installing doghouse and seats. got the outdrive back on, so it’s really starting to look like a boat again!!

    '96 lund tyee 1850 floor rebuild and foam replacement.

    got the doghouse recovered and a bunch of other little things done. i don’t ever want to install rub rail again. although by the end it was going pretty well. heat definitely is a requirement.

    it is running!! had a few hiccups getting here, all my own fault. but there figured out and now i just need to set the timing in the water. time to recover and rebuild the doghouse. still not sure what to use for the insulation, so if anyone has any suggestions, i’m listening!

    96 mercruiser 4.3lx won’t start.

    i figured it out. duh!! guess when i installed distributor 15ish years ago, i pointed the rotor to cylinder 1, and wires it from there. this time, i wired it with #1 wire on the terminal labelled as #1, which is to the rear of the engine. so every time i brought the timing marks together, and...

    96 mercruiser 4.3lx won’t start.

    i agree. i figure it’s something stupid, but i’ve gone over and over it. maybe a little break till tomorrow will allow the mind to reset and i’ll see it right away.

    96 mercruiser 4.3lx won’t start.

    to clarify, my controller has what i believe is a lanyard switch( just two brass terminals currently), as well as a separate on/off switch. the on/off switch was working before rebuild, lanyard was never actually there, but boat ran fine without it. if anyone has suggestion on how to test those...

    96 mercruiser 4.3lx won’t start.

    i was thinking that, but would that allow it to fire at all? my lanyard piece is broken, but has been since i got the boat 15 years ago. can i just connect wires together to bypass it?

    96 mercruiser 4.3lx won’t start.

    i guess what i’m thinking, is either there is a problem with the wires on the control box( commander 3000?), or ive miss wired the distributor somehow?? i have the wiring diagram, so will check what i can. i figured if it was backfiring the distributor is working properly, even if out of time...
