Something to keep in mind... it only needs to be long enough to keep the anchor tip from contacting the bow. In many cases, a decent anchor roller can do the same thing - or at least almost. Meaning - you won't need something really long. Depending on your trailer and ramp steepness - the...

A spec drawing like above generally won't give specific part numbers - just the types of materials being used. Without going the Google/AI route, I do not know the coding question. I would only guess that it's related to it's physical size (like thickness) or something like that. Yes, you can...

Is there a lip around the "hole"? Then "yes" to the center piece(s) (your call) having a plywood (or composite like pvc board if you want) bottom. Or, are there notches for support boards? I did a 10 second search on the net and it returned a whole bunch of interior pics - maybe try changing...

Lot's of pics out there in net-land - google and/or look on boat trader. Not to knock anyone on this board, but you don't make cushions from someone else's measurements. What if they're off by an inch? You make exact templates and then build the cushions.... or have a local upholsterer do it...

Yup, that's just going to be a plain old, screw handle/knob. There's absolutely nothing special/OEM about it. A good local (mom-n-pop) hardware store likely has them in stock. They're similiar to lawn mower handle knobs. It's "probably" 1/4-20 as that's the most common... but just take one...

Noble, what you're describing sounds well within the normal range of expectations. The chances are better than not that you'll be able to clean everything up nicely.

This is a big grey area with multiple answers depending on exactly what you mean. For example... my trailer gets used twice a season in salt water - and it travels about 5 miles each way in very rural areas with little traffic. That's horrible for the braking system as everything freezes up...

A little side note here... when comparing one engine model to a different one, the amount of "pee" is inconsequential. The pee is just an indication that water is getting to the port and, really, doesn't even indicate, definitively, if water is/isn't flowing through the engine. Heck, some...

I'm not understanding what you're saying. The standard flush port is simply a normal garden hose fitting that screws on normally (turning it clockwise).

I like it - it's a simple, effective solution. I may steal the idea

Yeah, my fingers are still sore from all that worthless typing.... just yanking 'yer chain a bit! New answer: Clean the carbs (less finger wear on that answer, too!) But... it's perfectly normal with a carb'd engine to have to open the throttle or give it a few squirts (pumps) when it's...

I believe that under normal motor operation, there isn't any pressure at that fitting

Noble, you didn't correct us when we're talking about your motor being fuel injected.... but... do you or don't you have FI? If you don't have FI, then a lot of what we just wrote was all for not.

Maybe your hose connection has a leak/isn't tight... does it have the washer in there? There shouldn't be any leaking - but as to your question, no, there's no problem as to what you asked about.

The hours don't concern me one bit - that's not a lot of hours. What is concerning is the lack of use and just sitting around - but it seems you are working on that. Do the raw water impellers, as well. also check the lower unit seals and fuel lines (both on engine and boat-side). But, to...

FYI, he said he has an OX66 (fuel injected).

Ditto on the water thing. Head gaskets aren't too bad of a job, though. Chalk it up to a good "maintenance" thing to do, anyways - and do both sides. It'll give you a chance to inspect the cooling passages and clean them, as well. Correct - shouldn't have to pump the throttle since you have...

I guess, really, only you can answer your question. This is not a knock on you, but the information we have been given is largely subjective, you know? I do think there's a good chance that everything is OK - but there's no way I could feel comfortable saying that, for sure, based on...

Truthfully, there's no way to say definitively without inspecting it... which is rather hard to do from here and/or w/o pics and since "front hull" is rather vague.

In short, it's not. Both tanks have their own fill and their own pickup - you can then use a fuel selector valve to decide which tank to feed the engine(s) with.
