The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
I'm in the process of replacing my battery cables and switch. Will putting dielectric grease on the terminals at the switch post cause a problem? What about at the starter solenoid? I had in the past been applying a light coating of grease to the lugs and then using marine grease to cover the...
I've got a 115hp outboard on a 20foot center console. Guessing the cables are 15-18' long. What AWG should I be using for Pos and Neg?

Would the low output stator (9amp ?) be adequate to charge a group 27 deep cycle battery?
Any problem...
