    Need help with converting MSD toilet to just portable, carry off and dump.

    After looking at the kit you posted, the larger of the two certainly is not 1-1/2 NPT threaded cap as evidenced by the two piece design. Looks like a collar off a 1-1/2" trap adapter with a plastic thread protector as the cap The smaller one still looks to be a NPT cap, but the larger one...

    Rev 4 to something else

    Interesting…stainless on stainless is infamous for gulling. Goes against all engineering norms. Wait and see how that works out for them in the long run. Solid hubs shouldn’t be a problem if you have a good prop shop. Sent my 4 blade (Evinrude Offshore Renegade) out for balancing and polishing...

    Engine Overspeed?

    No, it’s not ok for any length of time. Limiting top end rpm to within rated rpm range is done by prop selection. You need to learn not to push the throttle to hard or increase the pitch of your prop

    Rev 4 to something else

    Stainless?? You mean SSR series? Just a different sleeve material/configuration. Assuming they use rubber instead of delrin (hard plastic) sleeves which are used on the regular Flo-torque. Had to go with a Rubex, RBX hub to get rid of the prop rattle on my Enertia

    my 1989 30hp yamaha is overheating, alarm goes off, motor is pissing strong, i check my thermostat \, it is missing, Could this cause to run hot?

    A “strong” pisser is a meaningless measure of flow through the motor. Yes, not having a thermostat will cause an overheat Heat transfer is a delicate balance between flow and surface area. Throw either out of balance and you have problems

    The orientation of the crank to flywheel is determined by the key way. Rotating the crank to locate a piston in a particular location isn’t going to change that

    Male and female rubber boots, tool and steel pins that wires get crimped in.

    Proper terminology would help….. Your looking for a (amphenol) ) connector (boot) with pins (little steel leads) and pin insertion tool (tool to push steel pins through boot) Connector part number can be found on your motor’s parts list

    Hopefully you disconnected battery power before disconnecting everything else. ECM don't like to be connected or disconnected while "hot"

    Need help with converting MSD toilet to just portable, carry off and dump.

    Kids only need to go to the bathroom after you leave the dock ;) Cleaning out a portable head a couple of times in the middle of summer will have you wishing you left well enough alone....lol After putting the "if you use it, you clean it rule" into effect, its strange how the kids no longer...

    Vinyl curtain shrinking.

    The materials expand and contract with temperature. My enclosure side covers are roughly 36 x 48 inches. Doing the math, they grow/shrink roughly 0.20" between 40°F and 100°F. Ideally one would fit the covers at 70°F to split the difference.

    Vinyl curtain shrinking.

    Not out of time but from the cold. My last boat had a bimini. Used to store the curtains in the truck for the ride down to launch. The warmth helped tremendously to snap and zip at launch.

    Penn or Cannon?

    Got me on the switches…. The only electric feature I use is “short stop”. An auto retrieve function that stops the ball at the surface since rough seas, gelcoat and #20 balls don’t play well together
