    great job, i think it looks fantastic. what an awesome way to make the boat look 10 years newer ya know? i think your headunit box looks factory and will surely keep the radio out of the elements!

    Does trolling shorten the life of a 2 stroke enigne??

    honestly take the entire assembly off, use a parts bin or a paint tray or something similar to ensure not losing any parts and clean them entirely. the idle orfices are very small and clog extremely easy. the newer style brown gaskets started in the early 90's on the rudes i believe.

    Does trolling shorten the life of a 2 stroke enigne??

    a properly running 4 stroke will never have a problem at idle or trolling with a little load, the oxygen sensors are constantly adjusting the fuel mixture by A. changing injector pulse and B. adjusting the IAC (idle air control) valve on the throttle body or bodies. they are running lean at...
