    Distributor rotor rusted in place

    Short of breaking it into pieces, any ideas on how to remove what's most likely the original rotor on my 2000 260DA? It's frozen/rusted in place, and seems to want to stay that way...

    TV install project - 260DA

    I recently picked up a 19-inch Insignia tv/dvd combo on sale at Best Buy. This is a 110-volt set; we considered a 12V but decided this would work fine. We don't watch that much tv to begin with, and if we feel the need, we do have an inverter to power it. After trying it in several locations, we...

    Engine stumble/hesitation - 7.4 mpi

    Re-post from '99-'04 260 thread... This has happened three times now in the last couple of weeks. At no-wake speed (the channel in/out of our marina requires no-wake for 10-12 minutes each way) the engine will stumble or hesitate and then catch itself. Rpms will drop and recover (so quickly...

    Cockpit flooring project - 260DA

    The original snap-down carpet in our 260 was in pretty rough shape when we bought it, so new flooring was high on the list of to-dos. After looking at and discussing various flooring options, we decided to go with synthetic teak. We liked the clean look and the low maintenance. The product we...

    Cockpit Sink/Faucet project - 260DA

    The white acrylic cockpit sink in our 260 was a bit scratched and scuffed when we bought the boat last summer. I figured if I was going to change out the sink, I should replace the faucet at the same time with something other than a sink sprayer. We decided we didn’t need hot water, so we looked...

    Another new cockpit table - 260DA

    260DA - cockpit table project As many others have done, we decided to replace our cockpit table, as the small OEM plastic table really didn’t work for us. At the same time, however, I wanted to relocate the support post so that the table was center-mounted, so my first task was to find a post...

    2007 185 Sport - Stereo wiring harness

    Help! I'm in the process of changing out the head unit in my 185 Sport from a Clarion to a Sony. Each unit has a wiring harness that plugs into the head unit with wires about 6 inches long coming out of it. The wires on the existing one plug into another wiring block, and I'm unable to unplug...

    What kind of boat is this?

    Seen in the Duluth harbor this past weekend, certainly got a lot of attention ...

    Sessions timing out

    On other forums I'm on, once I've logged in, I'm in until I log out. On this one, it seems like I get logged out after not-that-many minutes of non-use (and since I read more than write, this happens frequently...) What I wind up doing, then, is just looking at and refreshing the posts from...

    finally took delivery

    Seems like forever ago that we bought this boat, so it was definitely nice to finally have it home :smt001 Delivery and sea trials went fine, although a broken fitting on the trailer brake line that we didn't notice until pulling it out of the water resulted in a trip back up to Marine Max...

    Greetings from snowy Minnesota

    Been lurking on this site for a month or more and thought it time to say hello. We bought an '07 185 Sport at the Minneapolis boat show in January, although we won't be picking it up until mid-April, so no pics yet (and hopefully the ice will be out by then...) We went with the 4.3L V6 but...
