    Why would an outboard Mechanic?

    Take the bolt out and see what you find. Maybe they lost the bolts and that one was too long so the hose was used as a spacer. Who knows.

    Gun Safe

    A buddy of mine once told me he called a lock smith to open a digital safe and all he did was place a magnet in just the right place. I don’t how true that story is or if it was a special type of magnet but it wouldn’t surprise me if that all it takes.

    Gun Safe

    Might be worth calling a local pawn shop or even a few locksmiths to see if they have any used ones.

    Just a reminder that summer will be here soon...

    I have never seen one before either only heard about them. But I did see a white Peacock once. Beautiful bird. And I found this deer in my yard awhile back.

    Somehow I don’t feel a modern car would survive this without some sort of problem.

    Fuel pump for 4.5 HP Johnson

    Agreed go with the rebuild. Your pump is far better quality than what’s out there in the aftermarket stuff.

    Compression too high?

    Must be a different Jim The guy I head about apparently has an amazing used parts yard and mostly sells older rebuilt power heads. I did a quick google search but it turned up nothing.

    Your right Matt I have heard good things about Timsoutboards. I think they are in NJ

    Compression too high?

    There you have it. I didn’t want to say it a get scolded. My skepticism is the advertised numbers are high and the seller would know this if they knew what they had. If I found numbers like that I would be looking to try another gauge to confirm and make an honest statement.

    Compression too high?

    I would be skeptical. Unless it’s a really great price that won’t hurt if it’s not up to par I would hold out for something you can put your hands on. Just me of course I don’t trust anyone any more. Best

    1981 50 HP 3 cylinder Mercury

    Funny you should say that. My buddy used to give me a hard time for storing all my parts in zip lock bags. He once put a few extra bolts in the bags to mess with my head and it worked. 😂
