    Teak Coatings

    My boat has a bit of teak... Honestly, I hate having to revarnish every d*** year. So I have a few questions. I am currently sanding down the swim platform and can't get into the spaces between the wood, bout a 1 inch gap... I was wondering if anyone used a certain chemical to remove the varnish...

    Fuel Pump

    Anyone got an idea of what the fuel pump pressure should be on a 1976 OMC 190hp 302? The manual posted in the Adults only section says 5-7psi in the Ford V8 engine section but in the appendix says 7-9psi (if I can recollect). Model 990232M

    Too much strain?

    Okay, here's the story, I like watersports, (wakeboarding, skiing, kneeboarding, wakesurfing) normally we have 4 or more people on the boat which throws a fairly large solid wake. I would like to go out more often even if a few friends can't go, say three (which would make two on the boat, one...

    Steering help

    Howdy again, I have a new issue. The steering on my Invader is pretty hard to turn. It wouldn't bother me except that before we pulled the engine it would turn with ease at speed. Now it takes a good arm to turn it at speed, and a little bit to turn it at idle. It is a Teleflex Tru-Course...

    OMC 800 Electric Shift no Reverse

    Howdy, I'm new to the forum, so here we go.... I have a 1976 Invader 19ft with the 190HP Ford 302 and the 800 Electric Shift outdrive. Last summer reverse quit working all together. Prior to that it would work as it pleased. When it went out last year, it sounded like a clunk from the outdrive...
