    Lithium Batteries - locking lazaretts

    Suzuki 90 clearances

    Turn your main motor as far as it will go to the side your going to mount the kicker. Turn the kicker towards the main and adjust it so they don't hit each other. Also check them when they are tilled.

    Steering is very stiff left and ok to right. Autopilot stall

    Disconnect the steering ram from the motor and see if the motor binds when moving it by hand. Then turn the wheel with it disconnected and see if it binds or is free. The only time my Garmin stalls is when it reaches the end of the cylinder.

    How to get real MPG?

    You should be able to read it right off of the motors computer. All you need is a NMEA 2000 network and the Suzuki Digital gauge. It will read it right off of the fuel injection. Mine will be within a tenth of a gallon when I refill. It will give you gallons per hour flow, fuel remaining, mile...
