    Dash hole cover up bezel?

    Wouldn’t use HPDE for a dash panel. The thermal expansion rate of the material is crazy

    Look in the bilge

    Perko switch question (1 engine 2 battery)

    You do not use automotive style battery clamps on a boat for a number of reasons. While we are at it, what is with all the cables connected to the battery? Should be one cable between battery and switch. Some tie bilge pump wire to battery as well. Otherwise, accessory connections acc terminal...

    Tahoe deckboat fuel guage always on full when key is turned on

    If your positive you have ground, then obviously you have an issue with the sender wire. Put a meter on the gauge and see if you get a resistance change at sender

    Towing with/without Overdrive

    That would drive me nuts… see nothing above 1800 unless the engine brake kicks in.

    Fuel solenoid

    No diaphragm. Simple, electronically actuated shuttle (needle) valve. Make sure valve opens and closes when actuated. Leaking (flooding) is a common failure mode. Replace orings Nothing to do with the primer

    Accessories not working

    It’s quite possible you have a dead battery especially if you left the battery switch on the entire time. I would start by measuring the voltage on both batteries.

    1966 40hp Big Twin to Suzuki DF25 on 14' SC holiday?

    Not a fan and refuse to do things half reared with a “new” installation anymore. You’re spending the money, time and energy to repower. Get a cable of the right length that fits both the helm and motor.

    Rebuilding trim cylinders on Johnson 110 hp (1988)

    Don't know if this is the exact one you need, but there are number of links to different suppliers. Have you drain the system and refill? Could be stuff trapped in the control circuits.

    Bowing steel seawall

    In reality, the ground is holding the load. How big is a function of load and soil compaction. Would probably get better strength by driving something (beam) in the ground and tying off to that

    Atwood surge coupler welded on Prestige trailer

    Don’t mean to be rude but where are your cross section calculations? This is a double shear situation. What wall thickness are you dealing with? Safety factor when life and limb is involved in a min. 3X

    Atwood surge coupler welded on Prestige trailer

    You don’t have a clue. This is how people get hurt…

    Atwood surge coupler welded on Prestige trailer

    Suggest you rethink your math. Don’t see where you converted the load to pounds per square inch. Don’t see where you accounted for acceleration and deceleration induced loads I buy 5/8”, grade 8 bolts by the pound because I shear them on a regular basis mowing the back field with a bush hog...

    Cooling system diagram for '96 Evinrude 200?

    What good is a flush port if it burns up the impeller if used for it's intended purpose? That is one of the functions.....obviously not the only if it can used in place of muffs.

    Rayamarine A128 to Standard Horizon GS6000 NMEA connection

    The VHF has GPS capabilities. It does not rely on the A128 for position unless configured that way. Big difference between being "connected" and the two units acknowledging each other over the network. I would start at Section 18, page 121 of the manual and make sure your network and GPS...

    Speedometer Connected to GPS Device?

    Side by side comparisons over the past 15+ years.... no quantifiable difference whatsoever in position accuracy. Reliability is a different story. On my third remote antenna in 15 years on my primary MFD. Have since configured network to utilize backup MFD (internal antenna) as the primary...

    Cooling system diagram for '96 Evinrude 200?

    As I said earlier, I don’t own a pair of muffs. Just screw hose in port and fire up Could be a false reading if your running on hose. I change water pump when pressure gets down to 3 psi at idle (~700 rpm) in the water. Runs around 30 psi at cruise (4,300 rpm)) with new pump Honestly couldn’t...

    Cooling system diagram for '96 Evinrude 200?

    Have not run mine on muffs ever. Always use flush port. One side is always warmer than the other. Water in one side, out the other When was the last time the water pump was changed? plumbing diagram is a fold out in the manual
