    Filler (bondo) question

    Can a color be added to "bondo" before the hardner is added?<br /> I just refinshed the bottom of a black boat where some areas I sanded came up white and I had a hard time making them disappear.

    All of the sudden my 1996 Suzuki DT-115 doesn't tilt up. I took off the ignition cover and can hear and feel the solenoid click when I hit the up toggle switch but nothing happends.

    Fuel Tank Safety

    I have a 19' cutty cabin outboard that has two 12 gallon tanks boxed in (home made) under pedistal seats that are awkward to say the least. My goal is to configure the deck space as efficently as possible. One suggestion made to me was to bury one large tank under the deck and build storage...

    1995 Suzuki 115 First time out

    I recently purched a 95 Suzuki 115 with 105 hours on it. It sat all of this year and last year and was only taken out once in 2000. What should I be looking and listening for when I take it out for the first few times?
