    Restoring 1988 19’ bayliner capri

    If it has no wax (dont sound right.... probably has wax in it and don't require more...)rubbing acetone on a spot and see if it gets soft and tacky. If so you could probably just go over it after a full wipe down. You would need to do a full wipe down with acetone before sanding anyway if it had...

    Surprise My electric car is not charged.

    I remember growing up we were going to go into the next ice age and they were trying to figure out how to heat the planet. Next is we are overheating. Now it's just "change". The planet has always had temperature fluctuations, even before the industrial revolution. Who can prove its just man...

    1971 Reinell

    I have your boats little 22ft sister. It has the dwarf size cabin, not like yours with all the head room but at 5'5" I'm good. I am willing to bet your whole boat structure is rotten. Mine was.

    Stringer install

    So glass cloth is the strength. The resin is the glue. Peanut butter is resin and cabosil. Cabosil is a thickening agent. Turns the liquid to a putty so it can hold its shape til it cures. Depending on your needs you adjust to the consistency you like. I would add a little chopped strand in my...

    Stringer install

    Most important is no voids and a nice gradual taper in your tabbing. I used peanut butter. I 100% wrapped every piece of wood individually then set in place with the aid of clamps and supports, using pb. Nice thing about using pb is if you do all your tabbing at the same time when you bubble...

    Stringer install

    You use some type of filler between the stringer and the hull to avoid hard spots. If the stringer is touching in a spot and then not it will allow things to flex differently and then crack.The tabbing is the strength and has to get thinner on every layer to allow things to flex gradually like a...

    Would you?

    So the first time I tried the fenderwasher thing was on my mom's truck in 08. Never an issue. Did my truck somewhere around 2013 with no problems either.

    Selectrim-Abandon or hook back up?

    So I have the ford. So not apples to apples. 1. My sender has zero to do with what the trim does. It just reports to a Guage on the dash where the motor is sitting....just like a gas Guage. 2. I think my cylinders have more travel than that

    Stumbling at Cruising Speed - OMC 5.8L

    So here are examples of external resistors. I doubt you have a resistor wire. Note how I says on the pink " resistor wire do not cut". Most likely you will have a ceramic ballast. Just make sure if you buy a coil it says "external resistor".
