    At this point I can't really help you very much. You could have a problem where the bank is actually lean and that is causing the catalyst to run hot or the manifold is running hot causing the o2...

    It would be from reduced water flow which could be a couple of things. The first thing would be the impeller in the raw water pump. They can loose their elasticity over time and still pump water just...

    I don't know much if anything about you boat but I believe your boat has catalytic exhaust. I would think that the risers running unusually hot will affect the cats and could cause a lean code. Kind...

    I don't like to rely on a cover alone and it is nice to be able to air the boat out after use to cut down on condensation.

    Do you have anything like this available to you?

    Like docdrs said above.

    I believe this is the nipple I used but it would be best to double check your size, there are a few sizes and angles available.

    I can't tell for sure but it looks like somebody used that poli-glow / mop-n-glo stuff on your boat at some point.

    To me it looks like you are not using a fine enough sand paper before you switch to compound and polish. I usually work my way up to 2,000 grit before I switch to a compound/polish.

    That is how...

    Fuel economy in boats is more related to weight and drag of the boat than it is the engine.

    I have a bbc Pirata and all things considered it is a very fuel efficient boat.

    I think your boat must be wet. I don't think the bump behind your boat should be worse than a Prostar 190.

    Check the easy stuff first. Look down the throat of the carb, if the floats are stuck it will be leaking fuel and flooding the engine. Very common with the Holley carbs.
