Merc never used a Ford 4 cyl, only V8's and that was in the 70's. OMC used the Ford 4 cyl with their Cobra drive. If it's a merc it is either the 3.7 or the GM 3.0.

Took me a year to get up to a buck an hour. Started in a Merc outboard shop for .75 cents an hour in 1967. The shop rebuilt several powerheads and lowerunits a week, so cleaning gaskets and...

Not always Bill. I have had problems where it would work but not properly. I have also noticed a delay with the OEM controller. The aftermarket controller doesn't have that delay.

Depends on the actuator on the trailer. Mine works with some trailers but I bought a Draw Tite controller that works with all brands. My in dash unit also kept flashing trailer disconnected when I...

I was running 10 ply 15" Carlisles on my tri axle, couldn't understand why everyone had horrow stories about them. I blew out 3 in the last 2 years, no real reason and no warranty. I went to Denmans...

It has nothing to do with the Bible Belt or Good Friday. Any holiday major cities restrict oversize loads from around noon on Friday until noon on Monday or Tuesday. Try the Northeast, New York...

Thee Carolina's have blankets, as do Georgia and Flordia. North Carolina you don't need a permit under 10'. MD, DE you can put money in escrow with them and just order permits online as you need...

When I was at the Mercruiser School in PA they had about 20 of them sitting on racks. Not sure what they were doing with them. I've used them with good results. It just sucks they came in and took...

Saw this at the local Home Depot, nice way to carry lumber.

Probably not a good time to invest millions opening up a new marina.

Should be better than the old one. It's sealed and you shouldn't get water in it anyhow. People tend to overgrease things so I think it's better they are going to greaseless bearings. Now we need...

Correct Tempest but the truth is the flywheels don't usually go bad just the ring gear. You can get that at a Nappa store cheap.

They're in a museum with the old snowmobiles they used to make.

If you got over 100,000 miles on the originals, why wouldn't you just buy OEM? Unless it doesn't stop good. I changed the pads on my F250 at 100,000 miles and they still could have gone another...

The problem with Uship is they allow anyone to bid on transporting your boat. It's up to you to check out their DOT authority and insurance. Most legit guys stay clear because you can't compete with...

When you store your drives down the cylinders are retracted, no pressure on them. When you leave your tabs down the cylinders are extended, under pressure, just the opposite of the drive. I would...

The max pressure on the tire is the pressure required when the tire is loaded to it's capacity. I am always close to max weight so I go by what's on the tire. If you're just using your vehicle for...

Sorry to hear this, hope he gets well. I am in Jersey if I can help at all let me know.

Where are you getting a marine starter for 89 bucks. Closer to 200.00. 600.00 might be high but I don't know how hard it was to get to. If you guys all think marinas are such great money makers, you...

My 6.0 was always slow starting when real cold but this 6.4 doesn't seem to mind the cold. Of course my idea of cold is in the teens. When it gets below 15 I head for Flordia for a week or so....

On the 33's with HP500's the only way to get them into the mid to upper 80's was to install pro chargers or whipple. 84 sounds good with the 525's but I used to see more around 11% slip. Maybe you...

I've been staying at my place in Hudson for a few weeks and believe me if this is as cold as it got in Jersey, I'd lose all my winterizing business. We usually say when it goes into the 20's at night...

Thing is they probably will last forever if you have a good gasket, or change your gasket yearly like Jim said. We used to have a pile of them in the shop in the scrap pile but I don't see too many...

Bravo's came out in 89 I think. I delivered a new boat one day with a very nervous customer and his parents. Backed it off the trailer, turned left and went right. The rigger mistakenly reversed the...

I ordered my last one from Ebay but wasn't happy with it. It seemed to be welded crooked, not by much but was noticeable. I was going to order one for my new truck maybe they're just closed for the...
