Re: Polishing Aluminium
Yes, polish with compounds from coarse to fine, and when you are satisfied with the result wash and brush the surface thoroughly with dish washing detergent such as Fairy or Sunlight or similar but not with too alkaline stuff.

Re: Brass bracket.
Yeah,
and guess who bought almost all of these after the war ended and the USA needed to get rid of them, and started a shipping company? It was Aristoteles Onassis, husband of the widow of John Kennedy, Jaqueline. Does this have anything to do with Seagulls?

Re: Corrosion Protection
Hello everyone with internal rust problems, I have a special tank for running my outboards in, before putting them away for a longer time. The tank has a solution of 30% anti-freeze, intended for winter use in cars, 70% of water. It doesn't freeze until -20 degrees Celsius, and does not freeze solid...

Re: EFPC Starts OK but Won't Stop
Hello Nudge, I´ve discussed this problem earlier, here: "Silver Century 75 stopping during run" on the "help" forum. Please try to find it. I´ll bet on a fuel problem because I have tried, as recommended, the ignition with a spark tester, and it gives a good spark until the last ...

Re: EFPC Starts OK but Won't Stop
Hi everyone,
isn`t it wondeful that someone has a Seagull that won`t stop? And that as a problem? I sure wish that I had his motor. My Seagull starts, runs for thirty minutes, then stops. I`d like to have it running, eternally!

Re: What model is this?
Hi everyone, isn't it obvious, that is a picture of a secret prototype of the factory, a four-stroke! That peculiar cylinder head has two tiny little valves and rockers! The push rods were placed in the left and right hand side upper water channels in the cylinder and the camshaft is hidden under th...

Re: Silver Century 75 stopping during run
Hello everybody and thanks for the answers. Haven't been out with the boat as we just had a snowstorm, 20 cm of the white stuff and temperatures well below zero. Must wait for a couple of days until it gets warmer. Meanwhile I found out that the HT cable was not properly attatched to the plug cap, I...

Silver Century 75 stopping during run
Hello everybody, I'm new on this forum and would like to know if anyone has an idea on what might be the problem with my ESC 2231 AAO Silver Century 75. I bought it two months ago, cleaned the carb, fresh fuel in the tank and off we went. It was performing well except that very little cooling water ...
