    Finally De-winterized.

    I finally got the boat out of storage today. Amazingly, it fired right up. I'll be skiing instead of working tomorrow. Too bad I'm moving to Korea in a few months and have to sell it.

    Car wheels with trailer tires, OK?

    I just put new tires on my single axle trailer, (I've only had the boat 1/2 of this year). Will having car wheels [(i.e) the wheight of the trailer isn't exactly centered in the wheel, the part that bolts to the trailer is closer to the outside edge of the wheel] cause uneven wear on the tires...

    No Ignition 1993 4.3L Mercruiser

    The engine is in a 1993 SeaRay. Its a 1993 4.3L Mercruiser w/ a Thunderbolt IV Ignition system. I'm getting no spark when I ground the wire from the coil to the distributor. I have 12V at the coil, the manual says replace the coil or the Ignition Control Module. That sounds too easy, does it...
