Re: New Owner 16' Starcraft Holiday
Didn't get to tear into her like I planned this weekend due to weather.
The wind and rain let up enough for me to give her a good intial clean out, demousing and take a quick inventory.
I discovered some hidden items in the process. I found what I think is the correct control box for the motor which appears to be in working condition (once I add new cables). I also found a brand new set of trailer lights.
Pictures of the scavenger hunt are
here.
There are a couple of interior parts that have me stumped regarding location.
I think the gas cans are all shot. The gas inside them was orange varnish and there is a lot of rust. There was also a Johnson control box that looks thrashed.
Once the now vacant mouse house was wet/dry vacced out of the motor housing I think I'm looking at something that is in workable shape. Major intial hassle is that I couldn't free up the the pin that holds the motor in the tilted position. It has a grease fitting so I'm hoping that I'll get it freed up during the week.
I'm also going to harbor freight this week to pick up a rivet gun while I have a little cash on hand. Weather permitting next weekend I'll get the motor off on begin the floor removal.
): what does everyone do with old gas? i used to just run it through my truck at rate of 1 gallon of old gas to a tankful of premium when i was about to hit the road and burn off tank in a day or so, but that was when i had a carbureted truck. now with fuel injection, i'm nervous about sludge clogging 10-micron filters. anyone got any suggestions??
