Sorry to hear that Cy!

I use Tuff Stuff muti purpose foam.

On back of the tachometer is a rotary switch. That is the selector for the number of cylinders. Make note of present switch position. With a small screwdriver, gently move switch all the way from max position to min position a few time and reset to original position. There is a wiper in there that will crap up over time. Moving it cleans it.

Did you know some toilet bowl cleaners need water to react!

Try using Kroil Penetrating oil. Let it set for 2 hours, breaks bonds due to rust, corrosion, contamination, or compression and lubricates to loosen frozen metal parts.

WOW! bunch of drunken clowns, Arizona lakes are loaded with party animals and I mean animals!

On your throttle body do you have a filter/muffler! On your first pic, at 11 o'clock, https://imgur.com/a/eryOepw

Read my post!

Your tach should have a rotary switch on the back that changes it from 4 to six and 8 cylinders. With a screwdriver carefully move it around to all three positions several times. Then return it back to original position. This cleans the contacts and may fix your tach problem. Worked for me.

If you disconnected your batteries for the winter you missed a wire when you reconnected them?

Have you ever though of looking at used boats in Canada? The exchange rate is a great deal. I found my boat near Lake Simcoe ! The rate is 25%! 42 large deer in Canada is close to 32 large USA deer! 4 years ago we brought home a 2005 255 ssi 6.2 B3 with 97 hrs. on her for 32 large deer. There is no Canadian tax [NAFTA] NO fee at the border. The 224 with the 5.7 is not under powered!
