    Force outboard maintenance

    I think....... Fuel stored in a sealed container/tank last longer than exposed to air. I ran the last fill up with fuel stabilizer / I tape-up the tank-vent on the boat when I park it for the winter October to June is how many months? Prime the fuel system & she fires up within 20 seconds

  17. The Force power

    Is this a L drive or not?

    It may in some cases however in this case I doubt it, judging by the bottom-shell looks the same as the outboard except the cut-out for the out-drive
