Re: Fuel or Ignition Issues After Warm Up
That's a great idea. I always hated the wear on my Starters trying to pump gas back into the Carbs after sitting for a week or two. So, I started to use a squirt of Ether to reduce the crank time, but then realized i was washing the oil off my cylinder walls !

Re: Fuel or Ignition Issues After Warm Up
I had problems with Fuel Vents clogged by spiders.
On a side note i thought it was uncool to use Electric Fuel Pumps on Inboards ?

Re: Chrysler 440 haul out HELP!!
I've rebuilt both my 502ci and also had to strip down to short blocks. We use 4x6 timber and with a Come Along, slide the blocks up the companionway steps.

Re: Rocker Switches
There are DPDT,SPST, Momentary, etc. The ones in question are red in one position and green in the other. (Anchor and Running Light Status) If they were LED I would not have this problem !

Re: Sleepless nights over my VHF Radio
If it lights up and your not in the PA mode, turn on WX mode, adjust squelch and volume. Any wire or coat hanger should work. Can you change channels ? Does it make any noise at all ? Did you Google Operation Manual or request from Uniden ?

Re: What prop puller to purchase/ reccomendation for prop shop nearest to se ohio
blathers, suggest you contact www.tcproscan.com for a quote first and discuss. It can be pricey. There is a shop in Clarksville, In called Tuckers Landing Propeller that I used for my smaller Props. He only has molds or "forms" up to 18in. It's all done by hand but he always did the wheels...
