    Looking for best Tonneau cover. Have always had ARE fiberglass ones but now want one that is secure and not able to be ripped open with a pocket knife. Don't want the metal roll out or the ones that fold down inside the bed. Finding the fold up should work. Anyone have one of these they like?

    1998 Mercruiser 5.7 TBI Backfiring Under Load & Loss of Power

    I wouldn't do that, it's not needed. The TB self bleeds Without the special fitting the Fun Times mentioned you could remove item 3 on the TB and a fuel pressure gauge can be attached. With it hard to start and backfire leads me to think it's either fuel pressure and/or injector issues

    7.4 merc won't start after winter storage

    It comes out because the gas expands in the heat. Only way to stop it is don't fill it so full Fed Regs says the fuel tank sender and fittings must be accessible. I had a 1995 rinker 232 and mine was same way, lucky for me but I never needed to get to. Right now lets hope its just bad gas or...
