Mine is the same, but that gives me a excuse to go to the boat two or three times a week to crank it. "Wife, got to go check on the boat, see you later"
Somebody has to do it. Tough job. May have to take a nap while I'm there.

Yes, I need o replace my flybridge cable.

Good point, to have a couple of spares. Anyone have the part # for 318 engines?
Thanks, Wayne

They make a spark plug wire puller "cheap" . Try that.

When I have my "M" pulled I go over them with a right angle sander with fine paper to dress them up. I would worry about getting out all the screws without breaking and opening a new can of worms. I use the lock system on the Tennessee river often and they get scratched often there.

is primmer bulb an uscg approved item for inboard use??

I too use fuel pressure regulators, but they prone to leak fuel. I( have had to replace several over the years and not sure if they are uscg approved. Keep your fuel sniffer working. Just saying

I've heard you can test them by holding a gas soaked rag near one.

I just had a thought. Why don't you contact one of us on the Tennessee river and ride along with one of us. I can't speak for everyone but I will take you out on my boat and let you see how easy and fun it is.
I'm at Chattanooga. PM me some time for a boat ride.
