    Battery storage

    Thank you everyone. Mine is out of the boat in the basement, typically cooler there. I have a trickle charge but may grab a maintainer instead. Good info there. I usually put a charger on it a few days before getting the boat out, early spring. However my batteries the last 6 or 7 years are...

    Battery storage

    Ty, quick question: does the trickle charge keep charging even if fully charged or does it only charge as the battery starts to run down?

    Hi all, Had the carbs rebuilt w/ a noticeable difference. Problem is the idle is around 1800rpms. It does come down to around 900 when i slow the boat down sort of forcing the rpms down otherwise it stays at a fast idle. I belive they're called Air mixture screws, one on each carb? Could this...

    Thank you, 2 questions: does each cylinder have a separate head or does the head cover all 4 cylinders? Do I find and auto shop capable of refinishing the head? Dave
