After sitting for years will it start?

[@WillFixThat]

We don't normally repair black water but our guys were troopers and have gotten it cleaned with lots of bleach and dawn dish soap. Plus it gave us an opportunity to spray down the engine room so we could get to work on the thru-hulls.

[@ThomasKuhar]

Watching you gives me an appreciation of how HARD that job is and how I'll NEVER question writing the BIG check!

[@WillFixThat]

Thanks! It’s not easy! People don’t realize the time it takes sometimes.

[@g1gamanx]

I feel for the Searay owner. I have a new to me 25yr old Sealine boat I bought a few months ago. I've replaced almost every black water and fresh water hose because of noticeable cracking, replaced a leaking fuel tank, replaced zincs, replaced propellers that had galvanic corrosion, replaced trim tab motors that had corroded. This week, replacing canvas as it is brittle and tearing. Probably generator repairs next on the list. They are a labor of love at that age!

[@torpedo2030]

Get well!! Thank you for another informative video. I need to learn more about marine AC units.

[@WillFixThat]

They can be tricky … it’s taken Matt many years.

[@johnmurphy6366]

A tip from an AC tech,check the ohm reading at the capacitor,not at the comp,It checks the wiring for you,finds grounds in cabling.

[@marriagepartnersministry5942]

Megohming the compressor and start components on day one is part of a COMPLETE diagnosis and fixing it once correctly.

Thanks

You rock …. Appreciate you!

[@markwray3905]

Hopefully you're feeling better 😊

[@WillFixThat]

Yup Matt’s back to being his sassy self! Took about 3 wks to get better from the flu I got lucky and didn’t get it.

Great way to start my day and also the first day of December…..that Yamaha looked very neglected!

Thanks Tom … engine definitely needs love.

Yup just depends what we are working on.

[@scottsautomotivecenter5612]

Matt the one thing I learned is don’t mix friends with business you’ll go broke. Get well soon

[@WillFixThat]

Agree … it can be tough servicing friends.

[@Harrybollox]

The searay with the red fluid may not be from the transmission as the zf/hurth transmissions often have as per spec, engine oil in the box

[@ChrisHarding-lk3jj]

Do you want the cummins diagnostic software? A nexiq link copy and cummins insight is all that's needed.

[@WillFixThat]

I’ll have to ask Matt if you want to email us MobileMarineKW @ gmail . Com

[@travisconner1581]

I imagine you do this a lot. I see tons of boats in the marina where nobody ever comes to check on the boat, they never get washed, etc. Then 5 years goes by and they call you to get it started. Luckily the marinas around here are so shallow, they're already sitting on the bottom anyways 😂

[@WillFixThat]

Yup it happens we do our best but you can’t expect miracles! Especially when you haven’t taken care of the boat.

[@mikepotter6426]

Dissipation system for the electric

[@mikepotter6426]

Yup, industry is full of em. Seems all industries are these days

[@AquaMarine1000]

A lot of connectors are made in China. That's why this problem exists as far as Australia.

[@WillFixThat]

Interesting maybe true.

[@Guido_Sarducci007]

I am thinking working on these neglected large boats would require a LARGE deposit UPFRONT. Owners obviously have not been spending maintenance dollars because perhaps they are broke!

[@WillFixThat]

Just depends on what you’re comfortable with …. It’s important to keep up with maintenance.

[@honeybunbandit1]

Oh boy, black water leak that boat needs a lot of repair and some good loving. And I think that outboard is about need to be totally replaced. I mean, the lower unit looks new or recently rebuilt, and how's Matt's trip going I went to respond to yalls last video, but it was totally gone

[@WillFixThat]

Yes we told the outboard owners to start looking for a replacement engine…. They just hope to extend the life a little bit. We took it down unfortunately! We froze up there … my lips got so chapped in 2.5 days 😩

[@honeybunbandit1]

How is the tuner

Haven’t got that far … recently discovered oil in coolant.

[@KDMarine]

I find these videos a little bit choppy, it would be nice if you could follow just one boat per video start to finish in depth 👍

[@WillFixThat]

That would be amazing but nearly every boat needs parts! So we’d be waiting weeks to con’t filming. Yes, it’s a real struggle. Looks like you’re in the Marine industry… does that make sense?

[@Tad-sb9nh]

[@freedomwanderer]

Man I don't understand why people buy those big nice boats and don't maintain them regularly.

[@WillFixThat]

Because it takes time, money and effort!

[@andyburk4825]

Are we going to see the blackwater boat get started ?

[@WillFixThat]

Maybe we have to get engine guys to come hook up to it.

[@garplin]

so was it the corrosion or the oil seal lol manny man

[@WillFixThat]

Was the seal but corrosion doesn’t help. Will see how long it latest.

@WillFixThat confidence with the wrong diagnosis is something i strive not to do.

[@martinbowers852]

get well soon son, when i estimate a job, i double the time and ad 30% ha ha

[@WillFixThat]

Definitely we rarely give estimates because too much can go wrong. Once people hear a number they have that set in their mind and have a hard time accepting when is much more. We also charge for insurance estimates.

Got my flu shot 2 weeks ago at CVS. And my Covid booster 2 days ago. You and the wife have to keep up with that. Flu is going around and its brutal at our age as you found out. RSV next.

And don't throw anything away put it in a box that's labeled and put it on the shelf so you can see the label at a glance.
