    Carb cleaning and fuel tube came out of carbs

    On my merc 50 hp 4 stroke I was pulling the fuel hose off and the tubes that they attach to came out of the body of the carb, what can I do to make sure they seal when I put them back together, may be why it was having problems revving.

    Prop does not let engine get to full rpm

    Looks like I'm running a 12.5x22 prop on a 50 hp mercury big foot, serial is 0G836524. Problem is at full throttle I get about 3800 rpm out of the motor, top rpm should be 5500-6000. Any and all suggestions welcome. BTW it's pushing a smokerkraft sunsport 820 fish pontoon boat.

    Front pads on 1988 Baja Islander 180

The wood on the side pads of the open bow rotted and had to be replaced, getting it out was not to bad as the wood was rotted and the t-nuts rusted, broke t-nuts, bolts fell out with ease, ok, now I have to put them back and the starboard...
