how to clear the drain from the ski locker of a runabout
Anybody have ideas about clearing the drain between the ski locker and the
bilge? Mine is clogged about 14" before the opening into the engine box. I suspect it's a screw or bolt: I haven't been able to dislodge it, but can sometimes get a snake past it. The end in the ski locker is level with the floor of the ski locker, so I can't get my eye down there to look through the pipe. The end in the engine box only has a couple of inches of space before being blocked by an engine mount, so I don't have much space to work there. I considered drilling a hole in the floor for access, but the drain runs under the 24 gallon fuel tank. |

You might try one of those telescoping 1.99 (antenna type) magnets from
your local autoparts store if you think its screw/bolt plugging it, UD |

Never thought of air....I'll try that this weekend.
I don't think a magnet will be strong enough; whatever it is seems to be stuck wrote in message oups.com... I was getting ready to suggest the same thing... |
