vetting

Just drain it - look on the bottom half of the sides of the motor for 4 brass T shaped wing nuts. Spin them and poke the drain holes with a wire to knock the rust and then the water should drain out. If you really want to be crazy you can also remove one engine hose at a time to get the last of the water out. Better safe than sorry in my book.

Sizes 000 and 00 have been sold and shipped.

Bump one time before going to eBay. I'll take $3.00 the prices above to get these sold.

Try cleaning, sorting, and taking pictures of 500 spoon.

So no need to upgrade then. Probably wouldnt hurt to change the cap/rotor, plugs, and wires this spring. I thought being an 89 it would of been the old style, so I was surprised when I saw the thunderbolt cap when I looked at it today.

I listed these on eBay to get some more exposure. Usually I just sell direct but I needed to get rid of these as fast as I can to replenish my fishing fund.

Now Im confused if mine is actually a points distributor or not. Its a 89 5.7L 350 - think its a chevy. It looks like it has a Thunderbolt IV on it. So is that a points distributor or is it already considered an electronic ignition and the Petronix wouldnt apply?

Anyone ever convert a mercruiser from points to electronic ignition? SInce its supposed to idle better, I thought it might be beneficial since we troll for hours on end at basically idle speed. Any thoughts?

I use mag wheel polish and a mr clean magic eraser. After that just scrub them with some dish soap to clean the polish off. Works awesome on vintage painted spoons as well.

What version of sport pilot? I know the new EVO ones are NMEA2000 and I think most HBs are NMEA0183

Would also like to know. I previously ran a depth raider and I think there is a slight difference in speeds between the 2. Usually I ran 1.9 to 2.2 on the depth raider. Really what you should do is try to keep it around 2.2 to 2.4 on a Fishhawk and then record if you are catching fish at a higher or lower speed. You can also do S curves and if they hit on the rods on the inside of the curve its a sign you are going too fast. If they always hit on the outside rods of the curve, then you need to speed up a bit.

Just got the letter from the Milwaukee marina (Lake Michigan) that there will be no boats launched until at least May 1st due to all of the marina/dock damage and that fact that there is 2 feet of ice yet. Our usual splashdown is April 15th. Went down there and there are docks heaved and almost a 1/3 of the plylons between the slips are bent at a 45 degree angle or more. Im not sure how they are even going to fix those. Man this winter really sucks....

Yes sir - x4d.
