    LOL, yes that's my garage. My wife thinks I have to much junk but every once in a while I find a use for a part and then I am completely vindicated...

    Next question is, does it work? Might make for an interesting project. See if you can get it working then make up something it will go in or on? Could be hours of fun in the work shop.

    Trim sender

    FYI, my speedo does not work ether as the tube from the pitot is off.. Next time I change the impeller I will fix but the speedometer is also not really required. Tack, oil pressure and temp are all you need, IMHO.

    Trim sender

    I agree, I have never relied on the gauge. As stated above its all feel and sound. Its almost like flying, lol. I raise the outdrive and the boat comes out of the water and only about a foot of the boat is in... Love it.

    you are correct, they are identical... the one on the port side is the sender and the limit is on the starboard side, please correct me if I am wrong

    Question for those in the know. My trim indicator does not work. It jumps back and forth between full down and full up, then some times settles where it should be or gives the correct drive location. I was told by the marina I would have to replace the gauge and sending unit. Here's what I was...

    Glass Fuse Amp?

    I believe the glass fuse has the AMPs punched into the side of the metal ends. They still make them and you can get an assortment online here at Iboats (https://www.iboats.com/shop/blue-sea-systems-agc-and-mdl-fuses-legacy-imf-729799.html)

    The Lake will never be the same again

    we have a community raft,,, believe it or not people complain the kids make to much noise and boats can't maneuver abound. The raft is 50 feet from shore. My feeling is if you cant drive around the raft maybe you should hang up the boat keys. My wife and I love to hear the kids splashing and...

    Favorite motor flushers?

    I over heated my 4.3 (same thing as the 3ltr) and along with the impeller I had to replace my exhaust baffles. I know I am using the wring term, there are plastic flapper in the exhaust that prevents water from going back into the motor ... I bet someone will be able to correct me or explain...

    Battery powered pressure washer

    I have one and it does seem to work OK. The pressure is not great but does gets the job done. I mix a citrus in the bucket and it seems to clean off the hull well enough but be careful to wash off the cleaner.

    Mercruiser 3.0 Alpha One Gen 2 Barrel

    Speaking of water muffs,,, a few years back I started my boat up in the drive way... all ran perfectly. I put the boat in the water and ran it for maybe 5 or 6 min. then it over heated.. keeping in mine I was 5 or 6 min. down the lake... Short story was my impeller had spun on the lower unit...

    Looking at buying a 2006 Bayliner Cierra 2455 that has seen better days at auction with an eye to restore it. Not sure what to look for.

    if its a cobra, I don't think they were still being sold in 2006? I agree with most here, the boat looks sketchy.

    1966 MFG Rebuild

    its a nice looking boat and such a shame it was left to the elements. Trolling motor, fish finder looks to have been a nice setup..
