Do you have a video on replacing a broken prop shaft strut? we have 1981 WellCraft 248 sportsman with a velvet drive, the shaft strut is broken just below the hull mount.
I'm working on a Malibu right now 350 block. After about 30 mins of use, it's losing power after about 30 mph. Just cuts out. If I pull back on the throttle, it will run alright. But if I try to go faster it just kind of cuts out. I have run through the basics, connections, filters, etc... Advice?
@@skidim8143 that's what I'm thinking too. He wants to go ahead and replace the pump. That's fine. But I didn't have my gauges on me that day. So, I did tell him I can't verify it's the pump without a proper test. It's a easy pump to get on and off. So, I guess that's where we're going. I appreciate the reply and the videos.
Great advice on that cotter key!
Thanks Blair
Great video! Agree on the cotter pin comment, new stainless one every time!
What a great idea for a channel thanks for sharing your page with me I’ll see if I can’t get it out there for you some and vice versa thanks

I’m always glad to see another video from you. Question- should you or could you use anti seize on the propshaft? I’m in freshwater 100%.

When it happens, do you lose fuel pressure? Since you already did cap and rotor plugs etc that's where we would start.
