I have an older 20 hp Merc that is in good condition and it has ran just fine all year. The last couple times I have had it on the water it has been smoking a little bit. I don't know jack about motors so maybe someone can help me. There is water circulating through so I assume the water pump is ok. Its not a cloud of smoke, but more like a steam....I guess. The portion of the lower unit that is out of the water feels pretty warm but not extremely hot to touch. Is this normal? The last two times I have been out, the air temp has been really cool. Would this have anything to do with the smoking? The motor still runs fine, I just don't want to blow it up. Thanks for any help.
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.
