tmark,

If the gas was not stabilized, it would have gummed up the carb or fuel
injectors, even if the gas would burn.

The reason Boots made his comment is because you seem to want to use this NG
as justification to buy the boat that you have already decided you want to
buy. You solutions to determine if the boat is a good value is useless at
best, and could be extremely dangerous.

If you decide to buy the boat, I hope you take some safety courses, find
some boaters to help you. Most of all, I hope you don't boat close to any
body of water I use.

boots, shut the hell up. iv read some of your other posts, and you are
nothing but an asshole. if you cant give me advice on this boat, than
dont wast my time, and google's bandwith. if you have something good
to say, then i'll listen.


but on the subject of fuel, yea, its not a guarantee that it will
run, but it will show that the fuel has not gone completley south.
witch might mean the fuel system will not need a complet overhulal.

I'v tryed to stick a tape measure into the tank, got 4 feet in and
came out with no gas on it.


and i got in it, and the deck feels good. no soft spots. lots of mold
thow.

the bildge looks, like it has not had water pooling in it. just damp
from water running out of the PLUG, not the HULL. its running out
where its ment to.



all and all, i think this boat is reall not in to bad of shape.
just needs some tlc.
