Asking for a friend..... what's this thread have to do with Merc motors and drives?

Ayuh,.... For a few reasons, I haven't moved it to the tech forum,....

I'm guessin' Ed started this thread 'bout the one I locked yesterday, from '12, that the newbie explained how to run a radiator, 'n fan on his sbf, 888 drive, with automobile exhaust, thru-hull,.... in depth,...

I probably shoulda just deleted the guys post, for many reasons, so that it would drop back into the archives,...
Maybe I still should,..??......

And,...... it's February,.... -17* here today,.... might get up to Zero*,....

@Bondo I would have deleted the guys post.

Then again, we could probably agree that post should have been locked after Don's original response in post #2

Maybe a forum rule locking posts that are clearly against the safety standards of IMO / USCG Col Regs

[flashback]

I found it very entertaining kinda like a novel. but I can understand the need to delete it in case someone takes it seriously...

 

[WIMUSKY]

I like this thread because it brings to light an ongoing issue. I think it will get alot if exposure since I think very few read the rules....
I'm in favor of deleting the other post and send it back to the depths of the sea....

 

[Scott Danforth]

the hey newbies thread was a good example that none of them ever read the rules.....

 

[Fun Times]

Maybe we ought to stick this thread for a while up top.
