Nothing leaned out - plugs look fine, a tiny wet but fine - took it out today and it doesn't want to go from 1500 - as I prodded it I finally got it to jump that area and it was OK - later it seemed to come up better too. Will have it over there in the AM - they are good BTW, not just a bunch of pikers

I'll be there, don't worry - it runs great at 3400 and above, better than the reverse I guess.

I was asking about the piston that let go before the rebuild.

Try the marinedoctors.com

Re: CSC Florida Gathering 2011 - Need Ideas
 

Nothing really blew up just started rattling, it didn't burn a piston.

UPDATE - ran pretty decent today with them, the low speed side of the stator is losing voltage at 1500 to 3000 where the high side kicks in - not sure why this suddenly appeared after changing a fuel pump when it ran great at the low end forever. The stator is only a year old and we will try and get it replaced if I can verify the purchase date - that will be tomorrows mission -
We'll be there if I have to paddle a raft from Sailfish

Wish I had an Etec- just say'in

There is a 150 with like 50 hrs down here for 8500

The KDW is this Saturday. Had a great club meeting at 13th st. with some local Penn pro staff folks. Capt.Greg Bogdan on Permitted locally. I want that Conch 27...... Capt. George Mitchell with an insane YF 36 w/ trip Yam 300`s. Interesting VDH w/ a stepped design and something fore that caught my eye, and of which I still have curiosity.

Cheers,

Sandy your entire body ain't worth that to a bunch Indian Dr's looking for organs on the black market - just say'in

My issue is not the stator I guess as it acted different in the AM - still nothing for sure

A don't know Dixon, all GFS's written and verbal misdirections are priceless. :D.

Speaking of motor repair.......I will have to chime in with my annoying oil wiring harness gremlin. If I have to hear that alarm go off one more time.........Hopefully the mystery is solved today or Monday.

Re: CSC Florida Gathering 2011 - Need Ideas
 

I am a worldwide expert now on oil alarm modules btw - let me know if I can help - what motor is it?? I forget, but do not pay retail for parts - merc or Rude

Brought mine home today, they found a wire from - the oil alarm module grounding out, put some plugs in it and it apparently ran fine - fingers crossed

Maybe now I can bring myself to get the outriggers and stuff out of the garage - couldn't before, just couldn't

need to get the parking permit too

Re: CSC Florida Gathering 2011 - Need Ideas
 

ESD-I found a great diagram on the THT for the system. My repair guy didn't show today, but should be here 1st thing Monday. The elec pump works(when I run power directly from the batt) on the remote tank and the lines are clear. The override manual toggle is dead too. I have seen this system before with my old 130 and I have records that show it was fixed 5 years ago.

I am still waiting for that Citgo sign. I have the tracking number......

I loved climbing tall pine trees as a child and enjoying the sway. If it bends, it`s funny.

If it snaps and you are Airborne and have a streamer, you may be a co- worker.

Ten bucks says no one goes to Chilingsworth.

If it snaps, it`s not so funny. Picked up some new nav lights.

Cheers,
