    spin-on gas filter

    Portable tank, I suspect water came in through a crack in the vent and I was unaware and it got in my carb. I would like a spin-on filter that could catch the small amounts of water but I don't know if it will run right with a spin-on filter on it , never saw one on a portable outboard, will it...

    spin-on gas filter

    Can I use a spin-on gas filter on my Mercury 9.9 carbureted outboard? It has an inline filter but that doesn't stop water from coming through, I need something better than the inline filter. Please let me know thanks.

    Thanks for your reply , but I kept wondering, this never happened before and I've own this motor since 2007. So I dug a little deeper looking at my new portable tank. Then Walmart actually gave me the answer I was looking for : Walmart's "Quicksilver 1200-8M0047598;Tank-Gas-3.3G-12L EPA US...

    2006 Mercury 9.9 ignition coil burned up

    Hello again , I have a 2006 Mercury 9.9 bigfoot prokicker , the coil under the flywheel that runs the ignition burned up. Is this a common thing to have happen after years of use ? Or does this indicate a short circuit somewhere in my wiring ? My book doesn't say much about that. I almost got...

    I think the insurance only covered them if my boat damaged something , very basic for their protection - if I remember right.

    Venice, Italy do I need a License to operate my boat ?

    I was playing with the idea of shipping my boat to Venice, Italy to use on a vacation . Do I need a License to operate my boat there? And would the boat need to be registered there to be legal to use? I doubt I would ever go through with this but I am curious and the knowledge might come in...

    Last time I checked hauling my Bayliner 185 Sport to Italy, I was quoted approx. $3500 from the Port of Savannah to Venice, Italy - one way - can't remember what Port they said for delivery. It was before the COVID , but did they say with it on a trailer and it would be tied down on deck on...

    Orkney boats

    Judge Yachts are very nice - a little out of my price range. The Chesapeake 36 outboard (my favorite) comes with a basic price of $435000 according to their web site. I'd opt to 700HP with twin 350 Suzuki's - out doing my current center console with a DF70 on on it.

    Flywheel not engaging?? Mercruiser

    I didn't mean pull on the crank bolt until it snaps off or strips the threads - "feel for it" pull a little then back off - pull a little more then back again - not full force in one direction all at once - :)
