Re: naulex flooring glue

I used 1/2 gallon of the #650 adhesive they suggested. The cost: Lonmarine # 370 6x14 roll: $553.86 # 650 adhesive: $ 59.00 My aft ...

Re: 1985 M 39 DC gas tank selector

On my 32, I noticed that the generator can only take suction on the starboard tank. That would also explain the tanks not going down evenly.

Ignition coil replacement?

Both of the engines stall at low idle once the get warmed up. Usually right after I’m out running on the lake and the come inside the breakwall ready to dock. When I first start them, they idle fine.

Re: Under deck wood floor and "pegboard" type?
