    Out board question

    Two runs no issues, pretty flat water. Will see next lumpy ride if that does it. Also don't have alot of faith in the tank gauges, wondering if it had less in it than I thought, have been running both 1/2-3/4 to try and keep weight down and not run too low. Skipped a fuel stop so dropped...

    Out board question

    Both engines have there own tank, changed the filter but it didn't look bad, so probably going to have to spend some money on the service side. Will see how it goes next week.

    Out board question

    Yep, watched a YouTube video on it to see where everything is hiding, has a water separator, filter and another filter in vapor chamber. Based on symptoms the first filter is suspect. Looks like maybe Napa has some or will have to order online. It's wierd it only on this one as I would think...

    Out board question

    So I played around with it this morning on the way to work. Probably my missing something but it didn't really help at all. One item is I stick to the fuel economy rpm of 4k which varies from 17-20kts depending on current. We were bucking for a bit on pretty flat water, kept bumping trim up...

    Out board question

    Yes a stink pot question... We have a Glacier Bay 2670 with twin Honda 150 outboards. I know less than nothing about bigger outboards and more to the point trim. This is a cat and I guess semi displacement? Wondering about outboard trim and what the methodology is for this hull form related...
