Dare I ask, did the OP get a mechanical inspection done on this boat before purchase?

is that stuff still around? :eek: I thought it got old and went away back in the 70's :confused:


Well, they did get sued in the 90's by the FTC ......Their market share dwindled after that....... I am convinced that my original 460 developed the flat camshaft because my brother used Slick-50 in it for about 8 years before I got it........(but I don't want to reveal a family feud here!!)...But it's all good though......If it didn't I'd probably still be driving that thing around and still agonizing about it here :eek:

Well, that's sort of back on the original topic....;)

I just reread the thread and it appears that he had the boat for 3 months before the problem occurred...

Hello Guys,

Long story short.... I parked the boat at my house and did not start it for like 3 months.

Well, the marina were I bought the boat supposedly did an inspection on the engine and everything was working fine. They took me a in a lake trial and everything and the boat ran perfectly. Temperature, oil pressure, everything?..

What I did not know was that the previous owner or marina?? had disconnected the alarm and oil pressure switch cable. Even with that disconnected, the boat ran fine with 0 issues until I let it sit for 3 months without turning it on.
