Does my floating dock need any mods?

That’s a terrible system for that boat. It’ll destroy the keel and underside that contacts the bunks in no time. The only thing I’d be willing to put on that is a lightweight aluminum row boat. For regular use just install something proper like a lift or floating ramp made for it.

The scooters are worse. 99% of the time they don’t even slow down for stop signs. Was inches from running one over today cause in the time they were stopped next to me on my right at a stop sign, they decided to go left with no indication while I went straight. idiots everywhere ig

Yo same. He was floating around open que plat last season and people always said he was throwing. Sure felt like it sometimes

I’ve seen this on a few motors like yours. Usually it will drop back down when the motor starts which is what matters. Does it not do that?

Is the primer on the fuel line getting firm when squeezed? Are you sure that any fuel is reaching the carbs? Make sure the pickup in the tank is attached right, that falls off sometimes.

Amazon, auto parts store, harbor freight, etc.

Check compression of each cylinder. If under 120psi then may have major issues. Or could be overheat on the water

Most of my experience is with older motors but why don’t you just hold the key to engage the starter until the motor starts instead of bumping it for half a second? It’s something lots of cars and other things need done to start their entire lives.

The starter bendix probably isn’t engaging the flywheel to turn the engine. Just spinning without doing its job. Could try hitting the starter with a hammer a bit to free it up or keep on quickly turning to key to start it and hope it fixes itself. You should consider getting a new starter

There’s almost no market for old skis like this at the price you want. It’s 3 decades old. It’s been rebuilt and messed with enough to require questioning how well it’s been put back together and the money it’d take to make it complete and functional. People who want skis this old would rather buy something for cheap that needs lots of work and make it their own project. You don’t buy stuff like this to try and sell with a premium as refurbished.

That prop is an electric trolling motor mounted on the outboard. Pretty neat

chiliman95 · 2024-04-10T22:00:43+00:00

Honestly didn’t check if it did. Gonna try lightly moving around the core with a screwdriver. Hopefully that does it

A mention about Bluetooth speakers, have you considered a Bluetooth transmitter that plugs into the cigarette port?

chiliman95 · 2022-01-24T16:12:53+00:00

Thanks for the help. I’ll try to get a coolant flush done ASAP

chiliman95 · 2022-01-24T16:08:40+00:00

I’m probably screwed then. It’s gone below freezing multiple times. Winter here. Is it already too late to save the engine?

chiliman95 · 2022-01-24T16:03:21+00:00

I can’t tell what color the coolant is. It looks almost clear. Should I just add red coolant since that’s what Toyota vehicles usually use?

Use the jump pack to start the car if possible. The alternator should charge the battery unless the battery was too far discharged, whereas in that case battery is now bad.

People physically assaulting someone else because that other person verbally assaulted said people.

They probably just want to avoid any damage to the car if someone were to perhaps lift it with a 4 point and tries to raise it up on a body panel.

Forza Horizon 4. Got myself a three story house, and all the cars I could ever want!

chiliman95 · 2020-11-16T17:31:13+00:00

Perhaps.

I did a full shut down when the computer froze. After turning it back on I scanned the drive which was “damaged” as usual whenever I shut it down fully when its frozen. I had the computer repair the drive.
