I've never had to source 8's here. Any input Peppy?/Lynn/other canucks?


We don't really buy any, but I think Ennis has them. We usually replace both sides with a #10 and keep the #8. We call them American zippers actually.

Ya is there a pro lem with rhe motor?

fragged8

hiya

I'm back,
 
I don't really know if its a problem or not ? I got a noise started happening when the motor
is warmed up but it doesn't do it all the time.

As far as i can tell its coming from the oil pump, maybe/maybe not.
if it is the pump i have to take the powerhead off which isn't a huge job
just a PIA.

Just in case, I changed the oil, filter and also the water impeller this weekend
but not had much of a chance to run her up for long.
I have to wait for high tide at our club to launch and it was late on sunday.

We don't have mains water at the club so I couldn't use muffs either.

the chances of the broker paying for a pump are pretty slim, but i can
do the work so not all bad.

Snuggtopz forum is back Allan, go in via the webpage link
as the address has slightly changed.

Ahh yes this thread was zips wasn't it heheh..

Peppy, Pm me your address and i'll get some merchandise
in the post :-)
I looked again at the zips and the tip about the sliders, they have a V8 stamped
on the end and the pulls are rounded, so i guess #8 then.

2 x 26" and 2 x 30" would be great if you got some ?
