You're drawing the plasticizers to the surface. Looks good for a while but will fade again, and the plastic will become more brittle each time you repeat the process. Surface applications such as...
Thanks Bob, good info. I did go oversize on the wiring and soldered all my connections. :thumb up2:
Hooking up a Helix Unit on the bow. I have my electronics wiring run through a fuse block that takes blade style fuses. Helix 8 MDI calls for a 4a slow-blow or MDL style fuse, which as far as I can...

"with the exception of a very few VL-80s and VL-90s, the rest of the '84 lineup were all old style pad vee design."

OK, thanks. Found them with that search at NAPA and Advance, which are my local parts stores. Strangely, still can't find them on the NGK website. Thanks again. :thumb up2:
OptiMax 150, Serial # 1B721450. Recommended spark plug is NGK IZFR5G. Tried looking it up on-line through local parts stores and couldn't find it, so I went to the NGK Website, and still can't find...
I think all you guys looking for a bargain priced boat here are barking up the wrong tree. Everything from the brand new state of the art factory to the players involved points to a premium boat...
Nice. :thumb up2:
Very nice. :beers:
Outboards are a little finicky about being run without oil. :laugh:

Last communication I had from him was one week ago tomorrow. Oh, well. Thanks for stopping in and checking. I'll pm you with my email. If you can forward the pics, that would be great. Maybe...
