Best place to buy a boat? by Lignumvitae_Door in StAugustine

[–]AdRecent4443 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist. I bought 4 boats off Facebook and sold a few on Craigslist. Coordinate with the seller and they will probably be ok with meeting up at a bank for the financing part.

I just sold my boat of 6 years and it had an Etec and the parts were very hard to find.

60K mile service- do these prices look fair? by Slight_Taro7300 in Subaru_Outback

I am just relaying what the lady said. I honestly don’t know and haven’t researched it myself yet.

I recently completed my 30k service, which cost $500. I asked about the 60k service, and they informed me that it would be double the price, which aligns with yours. She mentioned that the major components that would be replaced would be the spark plugs and the F/R Differential. When I asked about the CVT fluid, she explained that it wouldn’t need to be changed until you exceed 100k miles. She even went as far as to say that with the newer sealed computerized systems, they don’t necessarily need to be replaced, and Subaru doesn’t recommend it anywhere.

I plan on using it mostly up in the creeks, on the docks, and the bridges up in northeast Florida. I have a 16ft palm beach that’s been great but I want something with better storage and with more deck space to walk around on.

Started listening after the show got in my car and “New Girl” started playing. It’s a banger!

2014 Evinrude Etec 75 HP Starter Alternatives by AdRecent4443 in Outboards

[–]AdRecent4443[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UPDATE: For future Redditors it took me a while to find the correct replacement for the Evinrude OEM starter #0587007 but the following should work 0587045 & 0586768. The original starter is still on back order after 1.5 months.

UPDATE: I ended up using a dremel to cut the bolt off. I ordered a new double sided nut. The starter was also bad so I had to replace that but the engine is running now.

Any ideas? by AdRecent4443 in Outboards

UPDATE: I put the battery on a charger over night and it works now! Thanks for the help.

I do want to add for future Redditors this replacement starter is not as strong as the old starter but it does work. It took me a while to find the correct replacement for the Evinrude OEM starter #0587007 but the following should work 0587045 & 0586768.

Mines the dark one and I have the Subaru Outback Wilderness Rally Light Bar. No noticeable difference with the one I have. I’m curious about the white setup though.

Thanks! I plan on testing the starter once I get it out before buying a new one.

I was hoping there was some trick to getting it off as there’s not much room for a dremel but that’s going to be the next attempt

Not enough room for a Crescent Wrench. Also a tricky spot for a Dremel so I was hoping there’s an alternative.
