There aren't too many 1976 models left on the roads. The closest I ever had to that was a 1980 Oldsmobile Cutlass. It was my first car. Of course, I wrecked it. I loved that old battering ram.

I have the 1999 merc 8 on an aluminum 14ft polarcraft fishing boat. It seems to push it good at 17mph loaded down pretty good. Eccept for three things.

1, Every once in awhile it will spudder and pop around 1/8 to 1/4 throttle. ( used to die out but has not done that for a few months).

2. Most of the time its hard to start after shutting down to fish for awhile, I have to keep pulling one after the other real fast and it hits slowly to a full run, then its fine. If I take the cover off and hold the throttle open it hits faster, like it was flooded.

3. After bringing home to the garage it drips a milky oil puddle on the floor from the prop, but the lower unit oil is full and looks like new.

I do troll alot on the river, but open it up as much as I can in this never ending no wake river. I run unleaded 87 octane and penzoil two stroke oil at 50.1. ...And never changed the plugs because they still look decent ,nor have I adjusted any carb settings.
Thanks for any responce

My car's battery light has been flipping on and off for the past three to four months. It always comes on after I've been driving for a while in the extreme heat. The car runs fine; however, I would say maybe twice over the entire summer (I make at least four trips a day) once I put the car in park it shut down. It always started again and drives fine.

It's been in the shop last year for this same problem. No problems were found for me to spend so much money. That's why I'm hesitant about taking it in again, but don't wish to break down either. I don't mind spending money to fix a problem, but not to be told there is nothing wrong.

Any advice?If the battery really wasn't able to charge, wouldn't it be dead after three to four months by now?

I have had a nasty engine vibration at idle in my 1994 Cavalier with the 4 cylinder/automatic trans that I can't seem to get my arms around. Raising the idle slightly by resting my foot on the accelerator eliminates the vibration, but I don't believe that the idle is adjustable on that car.

I have replaced the front side engine mount that was broken. I've changed the plugs and wires (distributorless ignition) and the ignition coil with no effect. Oddly, when the front struts were changed (unrelated--leaking) the vibration diminished for a few weeks.

I haven't crawled under the car to see if the lower engine mount is trashed; I understand its not as easy to replace as the front mount was.

Has anyone had experience with this condition? Any ideas? The engine otherwise runs great and the fuel economy is 25 city 32 highway so I don't think its an internal engine/fuel/ignition problem.

Any help would be appreciated

Hi,

Would a FS1E magneto (stator plate) work as a replacement for my Suzuki TS50 engine?

They look exactly the same but i need the advice of someone with a little more knowledge.

Thankyou!!

Hello,

The engine was cold on my mom's 2000 Nissan Maxima. I went to drain the radiator and then add new coolant. All was fine. There was no coolant in the reservoir. I added the new coolant, ran the engine to get any air bubbles out, and then put on the cap.

Now Nissan says in the owners manual that if there is no coolant in the reservoir when the engine is cold, add to the MAX level. However, shouldn't the reservoir be at MAX when the engine is hot after coolant has spilled over from the radiator cap to the reservoir?

Why would Nissan have me add to the MAX when even more coolant could be added to the reservoir after the engine heats up again?

I personally think Ford is ill equipped than GM to survive the crisis.The new Taurus was a bit of let down for me.
Does the Escape have the muscle to fight with Rav and CRV.The new Mondeo in Europe seems promising.Any plans abt Focus in US.Edge was also seriously lacking any Muscle.They are selling Jag,Land rover.What abt Volvo,Mazda.I once thought that
Mazda was the weakling in the group.I have never heard that Mazda is for sale.Is MAzda strong in the US.
