Decided winterizing didn't sound fun.

swing tounge adaptor will get you a little shorter so you can walk by.
I'm sure they had to bend your arm to put her inside where you can get in and make motor noises all winter. Sweet garage.
 
I'm jealous. Resisting the urge to cuss at you.
Nice toys.
Bizsnitch.
Just kidding. Love the photo's.:rof:
 
WOW old Mopar, I was around when those cars were new!!
Yes. Several of us were. I think we're the 10 oldest, stalest farts on the site.
Beautiful days though. Too bad about us being the next to croak.
Remember the old purple high tail Cuda's?

hahaha thanks. ive had the duster since i was 12. the other 2 ive acquired over time.

it took 5 hours to get the boat in the garage but we did it. fits with less than a half inch to spare. well other than the slight hole in the drywall for the drive lol :D
 
question about what needs to be done to this even though it is staying inside and will not see freezing temps. i have used the air system and drained the water from the block, as well as removed the blue plugs for the manifolds. no water came out. changed the oil, filter, fuel filter. added stabilizer and seafoam to the fuel. drive is in the down position. am i missing anything?
 
I always change the lower end oil as well. Every 3 years I do a new impeller and pull the drive and check the u-joints, gimbal bearing and alignment, grease the coupler and the gimbal if it is not sealed.
 
I also change the drive oil at this time to see if it's getting any moisture or metal shavings. Plenty of time to get repaired if any issues. How do you like the new boat .
 
not sure what the air system is, or if it involves water in the engine, so if it does, you can probably ignore this.

if no water drained out of the exhaust manifolds, i would bet that the drain holes are full of rust and sediment. stick a nail or wire into the plug hole. i have to do this every year on my boat to get the water to drain out.
 
I was waiting until spring to change the gear oil. But I guess I'll change it sooner than later. Yes the air system I supposed to drain. Water from the heat exchanger and block. I will double check the plugs this weekend to see if any are clogged.
