    Motor height Seafarer 228?

    Its worth it to try. It should only take 20-30mins to move it up or down. General rule of thumb.... Anti Cavitation plate should be 1 inch higher then the bottom of the hull for every 1 foot the engine is moved back. 3 ft bracket. 3 inches up. Weight distribution, load, even amount...

    2002 v250 OX66 SPARK PLUGS?????

    I can't seem to find the part number for plugs. Best I came up with was a Champion number QL77JC4. No way am I putting Champion plugs in a Japanese engine. Just can't bring myself to do it. NGK 4551 (BR9HS-10) are those the correct ones?? Skunkboat?

    Agreed! Hell, my 92 were still there and working correctly when I bought the boat last year. They have since been changed. Def should have a service life of more than 5 years.

    Garmin Echomap 70s won’t stay on…

    Electronics are very voltage sensitive. Check your battery voltage first, especially after sitting and cranking the engine. You pulled a good bit of reserve out of the battery. Second check the connectors and make sure they aren't corroded causing resistance. My Lowrance units are...

    Def going to run some cleaner thru everything. I imagine just from sitting everything is a little gummed up. New set of plugs are already on their way. I was told they had less than 20 hours on them. But let's see what they look like.
