    Good Tow Vehicle ? - Tow Rating ?

    You like what you like, which isn't the kind of Vehicle I would consider buying. 400,000 on one RM, and 300,000 on the other, which is driven daily, and doesn't burn oil, or misfire, I really can't call then Roaddisasters.

    Good Tow Vehicle ? - Tow Rating ?

    I bought one for the Towing Capacity. It now has 13,000 miles on it. I also have 2 of the Buick Roadmasters, same Powertrain(5.7 LT1). These actually look like Cars, and ride nice, Novocain Numb, unlike my last generation STS, which rides so bloody hard, my Kidneys hurt. Cadillacs used to have...

    BRP Engine Tuner ?

    BRP Engine Tuner, is one of the better Snake Oils for removing Carbon from behind the Rings, way better than that ***foam garbage. Just don't spray the stuff running in a Tank, and then waiting several hours to go the Lake to blow it out.

    Evinrude 25202r WOT adjustment

    You sold it. It really isn't your Problem anymore. I am assuming the Bill of Sale says, 'AS IS'. A 2 stroke has Crankcase Compression, in addition to Cylinder Compression

    FWD- 1000lbs, and that poor Transaxle takes a Beating with just that load Edit: Actually the Extra Weight of the Hearse Mod, probably reduces its Tow Capacity to next to Zero

    Again, I have never been asked for any ID, when taking a car for a Test Drive. One Dealer said I could have the Car for several hours, just brink it back before closing time. I did, about 10 minutes before closing. now it was time to start Haggling. After keeping them there for another 1 1/2...

    I didn't drive on road until I was 13. I was in the Bar at 14, and buying Liquor at 15(having Facial Hair at 12 really made a Difference, opened a lot of Doors)

    I was never asked to produce a Driver's License, at any of the Dealerships. You can own a car even if you can't drive it.

    Dry Firing Outboard

    It takes some time to fill the Block on the Inline sixes before water came out of the Teltale, about 6 or 7 seconds. Some outboards had the Teletale located before the water got to the Block, so there it would be faster.

    Deep cycle battries and standard car battries

    While the Optima looks cool, they have been a bigger Headache than they are worth. If you ever leave the lights on at the Airport, and come home to a dead Battery, boosting will start the Car and the Alternator will keep it running, however the Battery will not accept a Charge. You have to go...
