    1st time buying stocks on my OWN online? How?

    I use E-trade but it's just one of many. I have a couple financial planners that do all of my trades with input fromme these days now that I am retired. They can do way better than I can do. Plus I am way more conservative now than what i used to be.

    I think "releasing the Kraken" was a poor choice of words.

    Removed the Wrong Screw

    For Volvos, that mainly pertains to the joint venture drives with OMC. On my 1998 Volvo however, I never had an NLA part and that included the 7.4L oil cooler I replaced right before I sold it. As far as the ECMs, ignition modules and EFI, that was all due to Volvos with Ford motors and Ford...

    Removed the Wrong Screw

    Agreed...never had a boat payment in my life. Even the Cobalt R5 we just bought was all cash. If I could get a low interest rate, it might be different.

    Removed the Wrong Screw

    It was more than just the OMC Cobra...it was also the fact that it was a Bayliner and was tired of the crappy quality of that as well. The two combined was just too much to keep it any longer

    Removed the Wrong Screw

    Sorry...writing was on the wall when I was finding NLA parts for my Cobra...this was in 2001 for an 88 boat. I did ALL the work on my OMC including using the factory tools to set up the shift cable which I had to replace 3 different times.(drive always stored down) When I bought my boat, the...

    Removed the Wrong Screw

    I owned a Cobra. One of my happiest day as a boat owner was getting rid of it. Thankfully, I knew never to remove that screw.

    VP 5.7 WOT RPM question. Is 4100 RPM low?

    Your owners manual will state this. If you don't have one you can download one for free based on your serial/model number. Here is a page from one I have

    Vintage Tire Issues

    I agree...I would buy a new trailer unless the old trailer adds to the total package of being a vintage trailer with the vintage boat.

    I agree...has to be the funniest thread I have read on here in awhile.

    Spare wheel hub... usefull?

    You must have old vehicles. I haven't seen a zerk on an OEM ball joint or tie rod for over 20 years.

    Spare wheel hub... usefull?

    All the seals that came on my travel trailer with Dexter axles had double lip seals. When I pull my hubs and repack my bearings, I replace them with Timken or National seals that are not made in China like the original dexter bearings and seals are. On my my travel trailer, first thing i did...

    Spare wheel hub... usefull?

    Or you just don't use this flawed procedure. I bought a used pontoon boat and puled all the hubs. Every hub had corroded inner bearings. The previous owner had been using the LAZ-Lube method. Sorry...don't trust it one bit.
