Re: Fuel Gauge
Lots of parts on these boats are automotive (like an electric gas gauge) but this mechanical gauge is made for the propane tank you see on a propane forklift. That is the secret. I looked everywhere, including the internet and could not find parts. Finally dawned on me, I see the same one on a propa...

Re: 1976 Chrysler 360's (2)
As they say, "your mileage will vary" so will your costs. Biggest variable is how much work you can do yourself. To buy new engines and transmissions I paid about $20,000. And that was the cheapest way to go. To find the parts and build two 318's with closed cooling would have been even mo...

Re: 1976 Chrysler 360's (2)
I just threw a bunch of money at the boat, and a lot of work. Still it was cheaper than fixing the 318's. I bought new 350 Crusaders with new 1:1 Borg Warner Velvet Drives and new instruments and wiring harnesses. Used the new front engine mounts and the old rear engine mounts. Used the old props fo...

Re: Who to not to shop from
Fair is fair. I'll give them credit, when credit is due. One of the bosses at Basic Power or Ebasic Power called a couple of days ago and apologized, said that they would refund some of the handling charges. They just refunded $42 to my credit card. That's what they could have done in the first plac...

Re: Stray DC current
Re-read your post and made me wonder if you had a battery with the side terminals. Have had the same problems and it was the battery cable to the battery connection. I hate those side terminals!

Re: Stray DC current
How is that possible?
In that case I would suspect the battery was good, and you only thought it was bad. I would suspect a bad contact in the ignition switch that had a high resistance so you did not have enough power to pull in the solenoid. That electricity stuff is magic.

Re: Who to not to shop from
I thought I was dealing with a decent company, didn't look at reviews until I had problems. Then it was too late. All I can do is warn others.
