    Rick, How elaborate of a process is it to jack the boat up to install new bunks in the garage? Thanks.

    Thank you for the feedback. I'm surprised to hear that some motors aren't installed square on the transom...... You would think the boat manufacturers would have a good process for this?

    Thank you for the feedback. We've confirmed that the engine did come with the boat from the manufacturer. Have you ever seen an engine not installed square on the transom from the manufacturer?

    It turns out the motor has one of those trolling spingloaded tabs connected to the lower unit. It stays behind the prop at low RPM's to slow the boat down for trolling purposes. When you take off...
  5. Boat leans to the left - Trim tab adjustment?

    I'm helping a friend find a boat to buy for casual fishing and other lake activities. He found a Crestliner with a 40 hp motor (s/n OT939377). When he took it for a test run it consistently leaned...

    Thank you! That's an impressive process and report! The axle and suspension system has definitely changed for the better since mine was built in 2008. My spindles are more vulnerable to damage if...

    It's good that you saw an issue before you had a real problem. I replace my bearings and brakes every two years and that timing has worked for me for the last 20 years. Unfortunately I had a...

    When to replace your bunks?

    Hi all. I have a 2008 Puma I bought new and I still love my boat and I'm on the water with it about two times per month on average. I have two boats, so I'm on the other one about every other week...

    After covering the openings, I put a large unused plastic trash bag over the motor. I didn't want to place the cowling back on in case it was dirty or I would hit something by mistake.

    I may have missed this in some of the responses above, but, have you pulled the screws holding the cable management sleeve at the front? I just worked on mine and this helped me.

    Thanks guys! I have a feeling that I put some pressure on the that fitting a few years ago when reinstalling my injectors after I had them maintained. Also, the O-rings on that side got damaged in...

    Makes sense. Hopefully the other fittings hold up. Do you guys have a recommended change out of parts at a certain time point (hours or age)? If so, is there a kit of parts available?

    Don, Thank you for taking my call this morning. I pulled the hose off. All components look good including the rail, o-ring and the fitting (see pic below). It confirms that the leak is between...

    Thank you. Is it normal for enough fuel to be in that line to leak?

    Looks like it. Is the part available to purchase? Everywhere I look it’s “unavailable.” When I check Euromarine it won’t let me place the order either. It kind of looks like two hoses come under...

    I confirmed the leak is at the connection point to the fuel rail. But it's leaking between the aluminum (silver) hose cover and the copper fitting going into the fuel rail. When running I can see...

    Thank you for the quick response. It's the inner one on the port side. Does any fuel come through the air side? There was definitely fuel dripping and I even saw the rainbow residue in the water...
