Said it was a Scripps V 12. I dont know what your referring to Harry....I'd like to see the boat in motion. It looks like the owner would too. It stalled about every 20 seconds. The boat looks like a triple cockpit Hackercraft. I owned for a short period of time back in the late 60s, very cool boat. It had a 6 cylinder flathead Gray Marine engine, not as impressive as the Scripps V-12 but it ran a lot better. :-) Mine looked a lot like the number 3 boat in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfeZ5Z25Ogw |

Well, for not being warmed up, I thought it ran great. You never thought to figure that out...huh? How do you know whether or not it was warmed up? Also, most engines that are in good shape keep running even when cold. This just shows how LITTLE you know about motors, you asswipe. Maybe the choke was sticking....duh.......duh...... |

Oh, there's LOTS of "maybe" things that could have been wrong. Let's see, my uncle was an aviation machinist, I've been working on motors since I was old enough to hold a wrench, I've wrenched on race cars that my cousins owned, I ran a full service station once, we had a working farm that we kept things running on, I raced motorcyles and maintained them, I raced snowmobiles and maintained/rebuilt them, yet you make wild assumptions without any knowledge. Oh, and it's an engine. The word Engine is taken from the term "Heat Engine" which is used to describe a device that converts Thermo Chemical Energy or Heat Energy into Mechanical Work. Hence you can say that Jet Turbines, Steam Power and Internal Combustion devices are in fact "Engines". Whereas... The word "Motor" was shortened from the original term "Electric Motor" which is used to describe devices that convert "Electrical Energy" into "Mechanical Work". Hence you can say that Drills, Winches, Saws and some newer Electric Cars have "Motors". |

Nit picking dork .Dont read my posts then, asshole. You, with your " vast " knowledge of " engines " should hear a sticking choke.....but no...you must digress to the aforementioned ****. Go sit on your Putter, and wonder what Harry is saying today. For all you've supposedly done in the past...you sure seem to have NO life. |
