Re: Front grab rail damage
It's crimped. Didn't pull out of theglass, but was close. Yeah wanted to get an idea how it would "properly" be fixed. See attachment above.
Looks like Taylor Creek Marina in Fort Pierce bent my front railing down about 45 degrees. My question is, how are they going to fix this? Its creased, so you cant pound it out without leaving damage? I would imagine thats what they a will attempt if I know them. Are those rails even...
Went to fire up the old Johnny Rude after about a month and a half, and it maybe turned over for a millisecond, and then a big clunk. Found the top half of the starter cracked, and about to fall off. This was a cheapo starter, but only a few months old.

I am chasing down an idle stall issue. The first thing I noticed was the Throttle cam roller that Doug and I put on there has cracked off. I know it effects throttle up, but would this effect idle at all, running without a roller? I know that at idle it should be just touching the cam lobe mark...
I have an Aquasport 215 Explorer with a Johnson 200hp Ocean Pro- 2 stroke carbed- of course. Engine serial# G06475995. It starts pretty good, runs good when warm, starts right away when warm. It lean spits(and jerks) at neutral idle. I have heard that I could richen the low speed idle on the...
