318 F-25 won't run

Changing the bendix drive on the starter as recommended by Facebook will check back if I have further questions. (It wouldn't let me entirely delete this post sorry.)

Re: water in oil -

The water sinks in the oil it won't turn brown until it's run again.

It is possible you had water intrusion through the carb or oil cap it's not unimaginable to have even had a build up of condensation either way maybe you got through it.

Re: Fuel removal

Get an inline 12v fuel pump pop it in line and let it do all the work for you then you have a fuel pump to prime the system later.

Re: 1977 F30 318 cuts off under load

Mine does that when the fuel filter isn't sealed and let's air in the line. Runs perfect unless you run 3/4 to full throttle then it just shuts off I've gotten used to popping the hatch and adjusting the filter then a couple cranks later and fires right back up good to go.

Re: Share a photo of your trojan

Yeah it is definitely interesting but you get use to the trip up the canal and unless they have the dams open its relatively deep. You aren't too far away at all that's pretty cool I have seen a few F's but you are the only meter boat so far.

Caughdenoy Marina just off Oneida on the barge canal (very quiet, extremely friendly, and dirt cheap just like my ex-wife) hahaha

Re: My Trojan boat doesn't exist?

I posted this exact same thing last year when I joined... your boat does exist because I also have one... For wiring if you dont have one order your owners manual from Bob and it will have your schematic in it Congratulations on your non-existent boat and welcome to the club!

Re: Engine sound deadening....

Am I late to this party? The trend in automotive lately is spray on bed liner it deadens the sound and is very easy. Will it work on boats? Idk but I don't see why not.

Re: Front cabin window seals?

Oldboat, I would believe it because it does work great, but I've seen videos that when left in the elements it doesn't last so it made me cautious with flex seal.
