Hey guys! Just got a 16' Carolina Skiff with a 93 Honda 45 4 stroke engine. It had been sitting for a couple of year owned by an elderly man so some catch up stuff had to be done. Had all fluids changed, spark plugs, carbs redone and new water pump put in. Ran it over 2 hours fine today and...
The last time I took my boat out was about a month and a half ago and everything worked fine and ran well. I went out about 2 weeks ago and when I tried the manual tilt lever and lift the motor the lever moved but the motor would not budge. Any ideas?? When I bought this motor this part was...
The inside of my boat right now was painted prob. 5 years ago by the previous owner with some kind of white paint. While it did look good, it is now chipping and needs to be repainted. Money is tight right now, while I would love to use some more expensive, longer lasting coating, that is not...

I have an 89 Evinrude 48SPL and was wondering if I am not taking it out on the water every week or so for a run in the water how often should I run it on the muffs just to keep things flowing?
