Copper paints should not be used on aluminum. You could use them on more noble metals, but that is risky. Use a paint that is raw copper free on underwater metals.
6 beeps usually is a bad sensor or sensor value out of range (high or low). What does oil pressure, water pressure, engine temp, voltage, etc all read?
In Pa, the driver who causes the accident, if They have insurance, can be made to pay property damages. Typically we file with our carrier and they subrogate. This provides a path to be reimbursed for deductibles, rentals, sometimes diminished value, etc.
Each party, regardless of who is at...
Yep. Called my attorney. His advice is to forget that option as well. Chances of collecting are zero and once again there is no recourse if he loses but does not pay.
I hear you. But this will be $2500 out of pocket between deductibles, rentals, diminished value of my truck. I have no recourse at all.
I called the police and asked what could be done, he was driving illegally. They said since there was no one injured, cars were drivable, there is absolutely...
If I thought there was any chance of collecting anything I would. As it stands, I would invest some more money and time pursuing it, would easily win an award, but I bet he has no means to pay. So in the end, I am just out even more.
So I was sitting at a train crossing, 3 or 4 minutes go by. I am in park, foot on the brake so my lights are lit, broad daylight. Reading something on my phone to pass time as it would be another 5 minutes or so. POW - truck jumps forward a foot.

So, a larger pitch prop theoretically will push the boat further with each revolution meaning more speed. But, that is very dependent on hull type, condition, and engine. I would expect a Merc 5.0 on that size boat borders on being a little underpowered. Your max rpm is close to what it should...
They are readily mixable as long as they are the same base, calcium, lithium, aluminum complex, etc. , or the two bases are compatible.
Get a compatibility chart like this one to verify. I personally don’t mix bases even if claimed compatibility.
On my 496 I just had to pull the block drain on each side and nearly all drained out. I refilled with the same dexcool so I was not worried about any residual coolant remaining.
Oh boy, so you bought a 45 yr old boat sight unseen? What can go wrong with this scenario….
As mentioned, get a serial number and maybe someone can help, and some good exterior pics.
Good luck.
I agree with your boat policy, we do the same. If we invite you out, we cover costs. Just bring any specifics you might want in case we don‘t stock it.
I guess I never thought the house rules needed said. I don’t mind the consumption, and if it was a weekend type visit, I would never expect...
