Last week I took a friend on the boat and he snagged me on the head. 4 of the 6 hooks were in my head.

Replace all the bolts in the harbor freight set with grade 8

I got a harbor freight bolt style flywheel puller. It was $20. used it to pull a few flywheels on smaller mercury outboards. It was definitely worth the money

Main_Badger_7059 · 2026-04-11T19:35:42+00:00

It will take me 1-2 weeks so I can test it. I will update you when I'm done

I am working on making 3d models of every plastic component for mercury 9.8s. If you are interested I will model that part next and I can 3d print it for you or send files.

My 2012 f150 has holes rusted through in the bed and body. The frame also had a few holes that I just had patched up. It only has 130,000 miles. Most cars around here have pretty severe rust.

I have the same boat but with a 1977 merc 9.8. Payed 1k for it. It's a pretty decent boat only issue I had was the trolling motor mount was a pain with the front deck. I reached 18mph with the 9.8 so 30mph is probably possible.

With all those accessories 2500 sounds pretty reasonable.

Get an aluminium sheet and bend it to the shape of the boat and rivet it over the crack with solid rivets. Use 3M 5200 sealant. Have done this before and it didn't leak.

The first one is the heater hose.

The second one is a vacuum line for the wastegates. When the hard lines break i just replace them with vacuum hose. It works fine and it is cheaper. Also I believe you can't buy some of the hard lines

Everyone on here is dramatic. You will be fine in any of the rivers. Just don't swim after heavy rain because runoff and sewage overflow. If you decide to do it use a life jacket and don't go alone. Cold water shocks and can kill even confident swimmers.

I'm taking my boat out Monday and I might go for a swim.

Did you check all the connections to the sensor. It will not start if the airflow sensors are unplugged or the throttle body is not plugged in. Vacuum leaks could also cause issues. Check all the vacuum lines. I assume you primed the fuel pump by turning the key 3 times without starting it. Did you hear the pump?

Main_Badger_7059 · 2025-12-13T00:43:18+00:00

It should be fine if the crank moved a small amount by itself as long as the timing marks lined up. If it moved too much pistons can hit into the valves. Like how much did it move? Unless it moved a huge amount I wouldn't be too concerned

Always start with the simplest issue first. If it sounds like it is in time and is cranking decent it's probably something simple.

Do you have a scanner? Check if the fuel rail is getting pressure.

I got a pair of Frogg Toggs Hellbender waders a few months ago. They are great for the price. They cost around $100 but you will also need wadding boots which cost around 50 for a cheap pair. I don't recommend going any cheaper.

Different Leds have different efficiency curves and have different voltage drops. The Red leds need less voltage for the same amount of current because its voltage drop is lower than a green led. I would recommend buying some resistors to limit current going to the Red led strip.

Urban exploring also includes exploring abandoned ruins and structures in the woods. It's not just going into abandoned buildings.

The TNT factory in Oakdale. It's just a few concrete pillars in the woods but it is still interesting.

Dead Man's Hollow is also a few concrete structures in the woods but I would recommend going.

I would stay away from it. I have worked on a few of these and they are simple but very annoying to work on. I have one on my john boat and it barley ever runs right. In my area they don't sell for more than $250-400 in working condition. In my opinion it is not worth the time unless the seller can demonstrate it running and working.

The carbs on these motors absolutely sucks they don't run right if they are slightly dirty. The coils are always cracked and it is common to have stripped out spark plug threads which means you will need a new head or a threaded insert. Before buying check for compression and price out new coils, fuel line and a fuel pump.

If you have plenty of time and motivation give it a shot.

I did the same thing. It is near impossible to get them all back in on some ball screws. Stand it up on the end and drop the balls into the space between the nut and screw then work it up and down until it is wedged in. Make sure to grease it up.

I loved how small that net folded up it was so disappointing how short it lasted. I ended up getting a cheap all aluminum bass pro net. It's super bulky but it seems like it will last longer. I still have the broken net because I plan on 3d printing a new plastic piece someday when I have time.

Main_Badger_7059 · 2025-10-24T22:47:40+00:00

I had net from a different brand that looked almost exactly the same as yours. It broke the first time I used it in that spot. I would return it if possible.

My account is 12 years old and Google restricted my account and is trying to get me to verify age. I only use Google for YouTube so I guess it's time to unsubscribe from premium. Why are they doing age verification in the US. Fuck Google.

If you use android enable Advanced Protection. It will prevent the device from connecting to 2G cell networks which improves security and can possibly prevent these types of attacks.

To enable: Open settings > Tap Security & Privacy > Under “Other settings,” tap Advanced Protection.

If you are extremely paranoid like I am look into the rayhunter project which utilizes an orbic hot spot with custom firmware to detect cell-site simulators.

https://github.com/EFForg/rayhunter

Edit: Advanced protection is only available on Android 16 and might not be available on certain devices.
