1958 Mark 28 mecury

[@dmc9492]

Thanks for the vid Marc, I took the mark 28 out to the lake & no luck again, just a sputter & puff of smoke, pulled my arm out trying to start it also noticed gas leaking from the bottom front will check the hoses, like your idea of bypassing the connector, wish I lived nextdoor to ya really want to make this thing reliable

@@marcouellet1420 Oh, i guess i was overthinking it lil, i was thinking custom baffle plates or welding lol did you do anything to address the mk25s shorter driveshaft or did you feel that the lower contact area with the mk28 crank was still enough?
