    New Engine Replacement - Engine Died and Hydro locked after 5 hrs!?

    Do not remove the swim platform. Don't add flappers. There are plenty of boats that don't have your issue that have the transom and no flappers. Find your issue and fix it vs bandaids.

    OMC Cobra outdrive for 1994 Four Winns Candia

    You happen to have a picture of the old outdrive or the the existing pivot housing? That will tell you everything. There were some of the joint venture drives that came out in 94. Pray you have that one...way better drive. You don't have to pull the engine if they just pulled the drive.

    Mine had a small grommet but nothing like used to come on the OMC Cobra. Not even sure mine even had one in the end. I also don't see any on any part breakouts.

    Volvo Penta in Bayliner 1989 runs in start position but not in run position

    Only problem is that in certain applications, operating the starter sends voltage to the ignition system from the starter solenoid so the engine will actually run with the starter engaged. That is normally just done for points systems but even my 98 Volvo Penta had it wired that way.

    Happiest Day of Ownership !!!

    Exactly which is why you shouldn't bother. It's also why you try to keep stitch length as long as you can...which I am sure you already knew. When I see stitching that fails, it's usually due to people using cleaners with bleach in it. Also, I only use PTFE type thread anymore instead of polyester.
