Do you mean the Sanford factor![]()
? Yea you have a point there, but can you explain how "bad gas" only affects one cylinder

Dont forget this,
(quote Rod from the Mach 1 thread) I had a mechanic briefly look at the engine in the Mach 1 this morning (he's here to fix the family boat's water pump and eratic running condition). He said it looked to him like there was a bad vacuum leak on that cylinder. He asked if the heads were surfaced (yes), asked if the block was surfaced (yes), asked how it idled (didn't idle very well at all), asked if it had any popping out the exhaust (yes), I then showed him the cylinder head and he looked at the gaskets and said that he could tell the gasket wasn't sealing and then he showed me how he could tell.
(unquote) sanford factor(yes) I think and I'll ask today. The motor I think was new right! Yes it was all about the gas thing about it did help that it was a year and a half old (something like that) did it!
Sorry 2sav,
Bad gas my a** ., that motor was in big trouble before it ever saw water, but he ran it anyway. Go back and look at that thread , it was running like crap (wouldnt idle, popping, etc, etc) and he ran anyway just to get it on the water and try to get it faster than 49 mph
. Lesson to be learned = take your time and build it right, than if something is wrong fix it before you go to the lake.
Sorry for the thread jack 2sav, now get back to work !!![]()
You forgot the Rod factor!
) I also did the same thing as you(redid it) wish I didnt do that
I spend like 5 to 6k on it and the sold it 3 river trip later. (get like 8500 for it) But I painted it , carpeted it, wired it, plumbed it, painted the trailer, gauges, enclosed the motor and put a electic hatch. plus a blower for the gas fumes. oh ya int. too 
I just use the boat more when it was old looking
relax 2 sav, I was j/k
What makes you think im not tryingOh the fact that im not made of money!!
His boat and mine are 2 different situations.....sooooooo..........**** off!!!!!
2sav
) I wish I had as much money as everyone seems to thinkwhy would you want less money. you haave more money then people think you have
I hope my thread dosent go to 16 pages with out being doneit going to go like 25+ and I think this is getting to be like the Mac 1 posting. But the mac 1 was on the water once or twice before blowing a motor
