My dad got a '63 Mercury 9.9 last year for his duck boat and we got it running but we are having some problems with fuel delivery. We pretty much narrowed it down to the fuel line plug that hooks up to the engine. The engine really runs good and gets the boat moving really good but after it is up on plane for a while it cuts out and dies. We figured out that if you mess with the plug connecting to the engine and squeeze the primer bulb it catches it's self and stays running. I was wondering if anyone knows where to get stuff (the fuel line and plug) for a motor this old. He really likes the motor (it is really cool looking) and would like to beable to use it for fishing/hunting. Any help would be very much appreciated!!! Thanks!!! ><>deadeye
i always though Taylor was a slim ball!!!!! watching the gopher hockey team last night there were blurbs running across the bottom about the T-wolves sale is off!!!! and A-rods group saying the finances from there end was in order.
this kinda reminds me of Norm Greed, er Green!!!!!!!!
I really don't care about that.
Sad to say the best chance of a championship at the moment in this state is the Twolves.
Used to be such the fan, but the NBA lost me with the pick and roll.
But I'll watch come playoff time.
If KAT can't play worth a darn , the playoff run won't last long.
I thought I couldn’t dislike Glenn Taylor any more than I already did until today:
Glen Taylor with @ChadHartmanShow when asked if the reason for this happening is because the franchise might be worth double what he was selling it for:
"Partly so, yes. I have a responsibility to those who have been on this ride for the last 40 years."
Sellers remorse for sure but too bad for him the deal was inked 3 years ago. Hopefully the league has a way to arbitrate so it doesn’t go to court, but we will see.
