Good morning people: I have been chasing this oil leak for some time. I pulled the engine this winter and changed the oil pan gasket, speedi-sleeve and seal in the timing cover and valve cover gaskets. The timing cover looks minty. When I had the engine out I checked the rear main seal, and...

I'm considering purchasing this system for the boat in my signature. Does anyone have experience or opinions? Thanks..... Ken

I installed the side exit pipe, I think, a little low. Was wondering if this is a problem. There is lots of rise from the exit to the elbow. At idle they're two inches above the water and when accelerate they go under water. When the boat gets on plane they come back out. First time, I thought...

I'm looking at purchasing this system for my Sea Ray. Any experience with this on I/Os Thanks.... Ken

Re: Thoughts and Can It Be Done? Corsa makes a switchable exhaust called Captain's Call. Its a little pricey, but gives you the option of loud or quiet. The system costs about $1900.00. The only thing not in the picture is the wiring harness. They forgot it and shipped it later that week...

Over the winter I/we invested in the switchable Captain's Call Side Exit Exhaust from Corsa. My wife doesn't want to call it an investment, being a banker. Any who, I'm wondering if one can switch from factory(out the prop), to the side exit while under way? For example; If I'm cruising down...

Re: Big Air Ice Tower - Any Input?? My Roswell Area 52 has holes drilled in the bottom and a wiring harnnes to pass through the hull. It also came pre wired for four speakers and a light bar. I don't think it would be to difficult drill a half inch hole and make up a harness. Fishing the wires...

Shifts into forward nicely, but it wants to stall going into reverse. I followed the instructions in the Merc manual, but I think it needs a further adjustment. Does that pivot point need to come up a bit (the one at the end of the lower shift cable.)? It stumbles going into gear. I thought it...

I have fresh 25w-40 in my 5.7 and its 3*C right now. Is it too cold for that oil?I want to here my new Corsa through hull exhaust.

We still have two feet of snow and the temps are still 0*C or less and I'm running out of things to maintane. One thing I have never put any grease to is the remote throtle/shifter. I'm wondering if I have to take it appart or is there a way to get grease in there? Once again, thanks.... Ken...

Turned my ignition on, no action from the fuel gauge. Earlier, before Christmas, I removed the tank, removed the gauge and had the tank steam cleaned and preasure tested. Put it all back together the same way it came apart (I think) and no gauge. I put about 5 gallons in a 40 gallon tank. Where...

Good morning people; Well, I finally dug my trailer out of the snow bank and in the shop to thaw out. Then I got my wheel bearings cleaned, repacked and back on, wheels back on, and the axles moved back 6". Next I put the boat back on the trailer so I could drag it out side to finish mounting...

Re: Wheel bearing greasing This is what I did last weekend. This weekend it looks pretty much the same. I think its going to be a while till we're on the Red River this year. They're forcasting moderate to severe flodding this year and I suspect they wont put the docks in till mid June.:blue...

Re: Wheel bearing greasing Finally! Here's a picture of the spindle and the sleeve. Ken

Hi again; When using the nut and washer to knock out rear seal, I noticed the sleeve where the rear seal rides was loose and came off with the seal. All the others were not loose. Also this was the only one that had any evidense of water. I bought this trailer new and it has not needed spidle...

Good morning; I just loosened the u-bolts that hold the axle frame to the trailer frame. Sorry I don't know the proper names. I moved the axles back 6 inches to try and get rid of the "mule kick". Would somebody know the torque values for the bolts. Trailer is a 2010 Shorelander tandem axle...

Re: Roswell Area 51 versus Area 52 Tower Here is a pic of the rear mounts, elec connection and the tower mounted in the collasped position. I can't install the front mounts untill I can get the boat outside as it's to tall to stand up in the shop. Today it is -20*C/1*F and there is about 2 feet...

Good morning people. I went to the United State of America, about an hour from my Canadian home to retrieve my Corsa exhaust system yesterday. After watching Frisco's step by step installation, I felt I was ready to attempt this install. I was trying to fit the elbo and diverter in-between...

Hey guys; An update and a question, First I removed the engine to investigate an oil leak. Leak appeaered to be coming from the pan. Changed the pan gasket. Changed lower shift cable. Removed fuel tank, steam cleaned and preasure checked, all good. Lowered engine into the bottom-less pit (all...

Do I need to use bellows addheisive when installing the lower shift cable bellows? Alpha I, Gen II Thanks.... Ken
