I've been boating for 30 some years and never put anything in. Drain everything as good as I could and then gave her the old blow out never had a issue, till I started with this idea. I'm done!!! With pink, blue, red, green -
SSSSHhhh that's our ACE in the hole!!! LOL! I really want to see Nick make it big. A man that talented should not go unnoticed!!! But I did like the quick turnaround!!!!!

Anything you learned about eyes is a big plus!! What worked that day might or usually you can wash your hands of. Everyday is a new day, not so much in the area you found them, but what they want, how fast or slow they want it. You must have a ton of patients and be willing to change colors, lures to spoons. From 12# fluro to 8# fluro. Most important is staying off the bottom and quick rise in depth that your lines might encounter. Best of luck to your river eye season this year!! A special 2 up for the river eye guys Kevin and professor T. Can't wait for the season opener to see the pics from the river guys!!

I thought he was back in the swing of thing?? Guess I was mistaken. I called him up and his shyt azz attitude was enough to turn me away. No way in hell was I sending that Ahole any cash. Everyone I ever delt with on here has ever said to send money but I don't have your products ready, that would instantly tell me he's going under and needs your $$$ to finish Bobs job up then tell Joe I need 90% down payment but that money is to finish Bills order. I saw this type of operation a few times in my business with parts companies, calling me up and asking to place an order, way before you need anything and offering a good % off that order, because you can't have an unpaid order before your next even if it's not your 30 days grace period. If you didn't take that offer you were nuts!! I would order drives or solenoids, stuff I knew I was going to use. So I used that supplier to benefit myself. There taking the punches to the head. They got a $1500.00 check and I saved $1800.00 on the next order. Soon the number you have reached is no longer in service. . . Good luck guys that's a hard on to swallow.

Gill you know me I can't rest at night thinking I messed up my own motor. The first pink juice -50* not for in engine. The 2nd pink juice reads for engine use to -50* but the first thing I read was.( don't believe west marine, only good to +15 because you can't get all the water out and it gets diluted to much) thank you sir either 1 of 2 things are going on!! Either your luck is as poor as mine?? Or we are both to stupid to winterize our boats. now the "blue juice at $8.00 a gallon might be the shyt to use" ok I went to the product statistics not a single pink antifreeze is good down to -50*F basically your paying for the amount of glycol which is the QUOTE antifreeze the less expensive has only 28% glycol which slushed at 28*F and the burst point is 14-15*F. There isn't 1 pink antifreeze that even is close to -50, all are above 0 degrees F only the - 100*F gets you beyond the -0*F burst point!!!

Yea, I'd love to see the difference, maybe I just thought RV antifreeze was the stuff to use, maybe I did FK it up? Because I used the one gallon jugs that taper up to the lid, not the regular square handled jugs like the automotive type antifreeze comes in. That would be my luck. But -50 is -50 no matter what the container??

That makes 2 of us, I'm going to make my valves easy to get at, even if I have to put a female end in the block add a peice of hose and a valve in the end of that. Then blow the water out of the block. Hey when they winterize the campers in the campsite they blow out the lines, splash a little pink juice in the traps done deal. I know some of you guys been doing this for 20+ years with no problems. I'm not saying that you should stop, what ever you feel comfortable doing, carry on!! This is the second motor in this boat, this time it was my doing. I say it that way because maybe I did screw it up myself, after 5 gallons coming out the exhaust I thought it should have pushed the little water that was left in the system out. Guys I ain't got an once of luck so if they made a weak batch or I screwed it up it won't happen again!!

Cool thanks for sharing Brian

I used Peak RV pink Anti-Freeze. I've used Peak anti freeze in my vehicles for years. To Landing Craft, it reads for Marine use. But according to the product Rep. His words were "we do not recommend using our RV anti freeze in the motor nor will we guarantee our product if used in the motor, I said now wait, we are not "running it as a sealed unit" or relying on it to keep the radiator from freezing, he just couldn't understand for what purpose I was even putting it in the motor for period!!, it's to be used for sink traps and a splash in the toilet. I told him we put it in the motor as a rust inhibitor. He just didn't want to hear anything as to why I would even think about putting the RV antifreeze in the motor if your going through all the trouble to rid the water in the motor so it wont freeze and bust. Why would you put everything back together and put a product back in not designed to do what your using it for?? How do you argue that point!!? So that's how our conversation ended, I guess your right Mr Peak antifreeze

So will pap!! LOL

Awesome job Richie, that's a big dog!! Came home from cabelas last Wednesday, when I had to go on the breaks pretty damn hard, for what looked like a someone's shepherd dog crossing the street into a driveway when the dog picked up a dead squirrel or something then it turned and up goes a bushy tail and blasts across the road and gone into a grown up field I was like did you guys see that both my buddy's saw it!! We were like wtf!!! -
Good idea Sean, there's lots of people that are far more informed on how to deal with these fish, and are able to do this without having the need to spend a couple million to accomplish this. I hope someone can come up with something. Maybe a simple as a sound wave that they can't stand or even kills them??

That mistake comes under--:: the faster you go the longer it takes . I used to use a black or white sharpie to mark the top plate to the case and a different color to mark the commentators end plate to the case. Some are indexed with a notch in the case, but you could still assemble it end for end incorrect. That's why I use 2 different colors. In my beginning times I did this to the Myers snowplow motors!! . -

If it's brushes or the armature you should be able to go to a starter& alternator shop they can under cut the armature "special little saw that removes the brush debris in between the copper bars" armatures create more power when each bar acts by itself. When the carbon from the brushes loads up the groves the armature bars act as one. If it's the brushes they should be able to get a brush close to what you need then just file it until it fits the brush holder. Make sure the magnets are still glued tight to the case. In the 23 years I was self employed in the starter & alt. business I never could get a magnet to glue back In properly. So don't tap on the case thinking your doing yourself a favor and now it might work, if anything if you crack or split a magnet your done.

I love the idea you used your own Intell. To creat such an ingenious tool to create your own auto steer unit. There's no blueprint, this is trial & error as you go. There was a lot thought that went into this. This is right up my alley. This is defiantly thinking outside the box. Would be interesting to know what the amp draw is when it's moving the entire shibang under a load and what type of battery life it inhaled while out on the water? Hopefully you get the timely battery life you are hoping for?? . Best of luck and congrats if she pans out for you!!! PAP
