LOL! ;D It used to run great until my gas tank sprung a leak! :-\ I ripped the old one out and had a new one made, but life got in the way of me putting it in. It's been a while now, so I'm sure there will be a lot more to do in addition to installing the new tank. But, that would be a major step on my boat's road to recovery. ;)

Title: Re: Update to fall project
Post by: IrishAyes on October 02, 2008, 07:05:34 PM: Bob, I'd be willing to lend a hand also. Let me know.

I thought you had engine problems with the boat. Guess I was wrong. ;D
Title: Re: Update to fall project
Post by: Bucktail on October 03, 2008, 07:41:42 AM: Thank you too Joe! t^ As far as the engine problems. I never really had any, but who knows now? I haven't started her up in a long time.

... and I'm talking about the boat! ;D

Post by: IrishAyes on October 03, 2008, 07:54:33 AM: Is it possible to hook up a portable tank to see if the engine will run? Then you would know if it would be worth the effort of putting in the tank.

Good idea. I would pull the plugs shoot some oil in and turn it by hand first. Must be awful dry.
Would smoke alot at first but better than scoring the cylinder walls.
