    Still love your guns Kansas City?

    Maybe making them easily available to any jackass that wants one isn’t really the way go. What do you think Joel Osteen? You cater to the right wing nuts. Can’t even celebrate a Super Bowl, much less walk into a church. Time for some reasonable gun laws. Wake up- It’s not a political issue.

    Anyone with 215ec. Trim tabs

    How do I know if I have carb or fuel injection?

    I know sounds dumb, but…. It’s a 1998 5.7 mercruiser on a 215ec. I thought it was MPI but removing flame arrestor I saw two big butterfly valves in what looks like a big carb. Can these still feed injectors or what am I looking at? I do not see injectors like I do on my 2019 v6 Nissan truck. Thanks
