Under the metal panels is the fuel tank. My panels were not screwed down, but I believe they normally are.

I am interested in the cost of the deckadence product as well.






Side note,...

Always keep the teak :) If you want to change it, take it off and have something else made for it, but don't lose the natural teak. It's too expensive and hard to come by.

I just messaged them on Instagram to see if they would be at the Miami show (they won't :( ). The labor of removal would be something you would want to do yourself, it's just a matter of cutting out...

Unfortunately I bit the bullet and bought it direct from Rinda. It's definitely a really cool piece of software, and in someways I hope I don't have to use it very much. But, at least I have it if I...

So I have a couple of questions.

1) what do y'all suggest for cleaning the vinyl on my 2006 Launch? It seems to have collected a little bit of mildew during the repairs, as well as a couple of...

I reset to 1 TDC, pulled the distributor out until I cleared the cam gear. I was off a little bit on my alignment so I turned the rotor clock wise a smidge, dropped the distributor in. The point on...

Well, I figured out what I did wrong :)

Here's where my rotor at 1

Here's someone from the Malibu forums with a similar issue (skip down to the last couple of posts).

I'm positive it's mefi 5. Very strange, I wonder why it's so far off.

Yep, 650 degree cam angle. That's what diacom is reporting.

According to this, I should be at 705.

I got the rockers adjusted today, which seems to have solved the ticking/clicking noise I heard. I also got my raw water pump installed again, to find out that the rear seal is leaking -_-

As for...

I was told to use cardboard to create the template. That said, I ended up paying someone to do the stringers in my old boat (87 Invader 16ft), it cost a few hundred for both. It wasn't a great job...

So, I finally had a chance to get back and deal with the timing issue. I was definitely 180 out, long story short, I got the motor running today. I didn't run it long, but I did bring it up to 1200...

I was feeling left out of the whole winterizing fun, so I decided to winterize South Florida style. I threw the heavy cover on :D

Now that I think about it, I was basing it on when the valve closest to the stern (front of engine) would go up. With out checking any pictures, Im almost that is the exhaust valve. :)

I understand now. I'll check that next time I'm near the boat.

Both valves are in the up position. There is a mark on the balancer and the housing. I lined those up to ensure TDC. I lined up the indent and white line on the distributor and dropped the...

So I got everything put back together a few weeks back, but I've been struggling to get the motor to show any signs of life.

Where in Florida? I might be able to swing by and look at it if it's within a couple hours of Miami.

You should be able to turn the cylinders by "hand". To do this, you will need to attach a socket (24mm I believe) and breaker bar (you can use a normal ratchet with a pipe on it to get leverage, but...

I replaced my lifters while I had the heads off, a few were collapsed and others I thought may be going so I did all 16.

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but 2500 are those the same injectors for the 2006? Do you have a part number?
