    No dipstick on 1989 era 3.0L?

    Yeah, try the diesel oil. I've always had issues with rotella and delvac shearing way out of grade in boats but I seem to be an exception to that.

    Maybe use epoxy so you get a longer working time too?

    I/O (Sterndrive) Conversion to Outboards

    Scott seemed to have the worse of the issues than I did. But I'll tell you what I got. On the 330 we ran a bead of 5200 around the exhaust port to reseal the flange and did the old wipe to finish the bead like caulking. That was 15 years ago and it is still there. You can't scrape that crap off...

    Looks good sir. Color match is a wee bit off though. :p

    Trailer tires.

    What came on the GMC? Our 22 had the older LTX A/T2 and thought they were decent. (Would have replaced with defenders though) I replaced the defender LTX M/S on my 19 with the newer defender LTX M/S 2 and think I liked the old style better. These do have a bit of tread noise but performance...

    Trailer tires.

    My girls corolla wears evenly as well to the point I also don't rotate them. I only really notice on my truck the outside edges on the fronts wear down a little quicker from turns where the rear stays straight. I could probably do without rotations but they more or less sync up with every...

    Trailer tires.

    Yeah. On those michelins it was like a switch. Went down hill quick but were still very good. Just no longer great. I probably could've went another 10k on them as I replaced them with about 4/32 of tread left but I had a long trip coming up and wanted new rubber for it. I've had lesser brand...

    Trailer tires.

    Michelin defenders. Expensive but seem to be one of the few I get my money's worth out of. Had a set of hankook tires on my 04 that went 110k too. Religious about rotation every 10k or so and keep the alignment tight.

    Trailer tires.

    I've noticed on vehicles around the 5 year mark the driving characteristics are severely changed from new. That's about as long as I get out of tires on my daily though. Start getting the "squeal" even on mild turns on off ramps. Last set went 130k miles though so doing them every 4-5 years...

    I've seen furlong in the wild way more than you think you would. :rolleyes:

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    I think it was more like a butt of humor. Here's a turtle I found at work:

    2025 Splash of the Year Nominations!

    It went up about 10$ a pail between when I first was planning and when I pulled the trigger. 178 according to my invoice. I know there was a jump post 16 or so just due to production facilities taking hits but don't have any info on what it was in the middle. :(

    Trailer tires.

    Couple of the trailers have maxxis. They've been fine as well. Throw off a little noise if I recall correctly.
