So far, I have no clue lol. Been fighting the intermittent spark issue since I installed them. The boat goes faster the more people I pile in so I'm pretty sure they will help

I go away and I see I missed a Here We Go Again thread!

So Frank, you're leaning towards buying a NEW boat the next time around? If so, are things turning around with this crappy economy or did you find some new foster parents?!?!?!

Me, I got everything back together on mine and went to fire things last weekend and was greeted by a beat starter. OP was closed so I ordered a new mini high torque which should be here before this weekend.

Also, I win the Darwin award for this week. After a lot hassle of coming up with replacement IC's, I sat down this week while down to inspected my old IC's a little closer hoping to see what could be done with the 'bad' one... The old ones look beautiful inside the cores, like almost new with no corrosion or blockage. The more I looked at them both, I was surprised one would be leaking based on the super clean condition (probably because the boat was used in freshwater before last year and even last year it was always run back up the river into freshwater before being pulled). The leaking I was seeing (in the one I though was bad) turned out to be a leaking $0.59 o-ring. A new o-ring and they both test fine at 100+psi. Yes, I'm a jackazz for not spending more time with my initial pressure testing/trouble shooting, but on the plus side, the new cores are now anodized for more longevity and the "old" IC's are in perfect shape. The old IC's can be used as spares or sold for decent $$$ since Lee cores are costly and rare to come by. Oh well, so the stupid mistake set me back a week or two and some $/time, but at least the old cores are in perfect condition.

I'm here. Been busy with other things around other than boating. Glad to see you're in Frank, Scott engines look great.

Everyone else will be in before me...I'm over it as it'll just add to my generally ****ty mood lately as the weather hasn't been very cooperative. Few Nice days but most seems to be rainy and chitty...
